Commodities Portfolio Manager
Role Overview
We have partnered with a tier-1 macro hedge fund (multi-billion AUM & recent launch) looking to hire a Commodities Portfolio Manager to focus on energy markets.
With a strong track record in directional G10 Macro, this well-respected fund is actively expanding into complementary asset classes and trading styles that offer diversification to their core expertise, while enhancing returns.
This is a rare opportunity to join an under-the-radar, high-caliber team and play a significant role in the trajectory of the fund at an early stage. Led by a renowned CIO with 25+ years of experience and backed by significant capital, you will be provided with a collaborative and resource-rich environment as well as a formula-based payout, offering substantial upside.
The ideal candidate will bring a proven PnL track record within energy commodities—such as oil, gas, or power—and a well-defined framework for how they would deploy their strategy on the buy side.
Key Responsibilities:
- Portfolio Management: Develop and execute discretionary trading strategies across energy markets (e.g., oil, gas, power), managing a portfolio of $100M–$300M+ depending on experience and strategy profile
- Strategy Development: Leverage a combination of fundamental and macroeconomic analysis to identify trading opportunities within the energy market.
- Risk Management: Design and maintain a risk management approach tailored to commodity-specific volatility and liquidity
- Collaboration: Work closely with the CIO and investment team to integrate insights, share research, and contribute to overall fund performance
Requirements & Qualifications
- Experience: 5–15+ years trading energy commodities. Anyone with more experience will be expected to demonstrate stronger PnL history and portfolio construction sophistication
- Market Expertise: Deep knowledge of global energy markets, including oil, gas, or power.
- Macro Understanding: Ability to contextualize energy markets within broader macroeconomic trends and integrate cross-asset insights into trade construction
