The Commodities team of Euronext is looking to expand his team to fuel the growth of the franchise. Euronext is entering a new strategic cycle with high ambitions for its commodities franchise, which has been historically focused on agricultural products. Euronext plans to leverage the strength of its integrated clearing house, Euronext Clearing, in order to develop new products and enter into new commodity markets.

The Commodities Manager of New Products will contribute to the expansion of the product range of the commodities franchise, by launching and nurturing products that cater to new commodity markets. He/She will help craft a compelling value proposition and define the best go-to-market strategy to market new futures contracts.

Ahead of a new product launch, he/she will execute on this strategy, create trust-based relationships with prospects and clients and animate the community of intermediaries and stakeholders that are critical to the success of a new product launch.

After launch, he/she will nurture these relationships so that Euronext contracts become a standard in these industries. The Commodities Manager of New Products will organize ad-hoc sessions, leverage corporate events and reach-out to clients to educate the industry on the benefits of futures markets, and to promote the use of futures prices as a reference in real contracts. He/she will connect prospects to the right intermediaries and identify changes or new features that could cement client adoption.​
