RemoteLondon, England, United Kingdom or United Kingdom
Job Summary
Own the monthly market insight by reviewing, sharpening, and signing off sentiment papers across the full dataset portfolio to reflect a considered Treefera view on supply, demand, and political factors. Monitor assigned commodities proactively to flag significant events like weather shifts or crop estimates worth communicating to clients. Hold the market voice by ensuring published content reads correctly for physical traders, while partnering with Product Marketing to turn views into newsletters and campaigns.

Establish a dependable cadence for monthly insights and become a recognized voice in the industry within the first year.
Required Qualifications
- deep, practical knowledge of commodity markets — how prices move, and how supply & demand play out across regions and seasons
- editorial judgement to take a draft and turn it into a piece that carries a clear point of view, and the confidence to put your name to it
- ability to write for the physical market — knowing how traders and buyers actually read, and the ability to spot language that won't land with them
- ability to represent analysis externally — building relationships with analysts and putting a view across at events and briefings
- ability to work without a fixed roadmap, calling market events worth publishing as they happen and setting own priorities as demand shifts
Desired Qualifications
- Experience at a price-reporting agency, commodity desk, or market publication — the outlooks and commentary the market actually reads
- A track record of external presence — quoted commentary, conference speaking, or an existing network among commodity analysts
- Familiarity with AI-assisted drafting and research workflows, and a clear sense of where human judgement has to override them
