What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote or hybrid work.

At VIKAN TRADE S.L., I trade and source agricultural commodities, processed food products, and by-products. My work includes grains, oilseeds, pulses, and feed products, alongside purchasing and supplier relationship management.

At TRIDGE CO. LTD, I traded and purchased agrocommodities and by-products for human and animal nutrition and handled international trade and import-export activities. I was Team Leader Southern Europe for Grains and Oilseeds, leading a team of 6 people.

Earlier, I worked in agricultural commodities brokerage at BERNAM & PARTNERS and in purchasing and trading at BIOMASS CONCEPT. These roles included transactions with international counterparties and supplier and customer relationship management.

Before moving into commodities in 2019, I practiced law, including work on contracts, commercial disputes, debt recovery, and mediation. That legal background informs my understanding of contracts, negotiation, regulatory matters, and cross-border business.
