Global Sector Strategist Animal Protein - Utrecht

You inspire the team with new research ideas, contribute to research, and sign off on research products. You use your existing network, conferences, working groups, company, and client visits to constantly deepen your knowledge base.

The team’s combined forces directly contribute to making a difference for Rabobank and our clients by tackling a broad range of complex strategic questions. For example:

• Which key strategic drivers will affect the poultry industry’s success in the next five years?
• What are the impacts of shifting policies with regard to sustainability?
• What technology platform will be used when more traceability is required?
• What are the risks and opportunities for Rabobank in South East Asia?
• Participating in the GRSB
• Deal team participation with major animal protein companies

• Our goal is to inform and inspire. You position yourself and Rabobank as thought leader in animal protein with industry bodies, media, prospects, and clients at senior executive level.
• Doing research is at our core. You will coordinate the delivery of research products with your team members, managing complex (sometimes cross-regional/cross-sectoral) research projects, taking ownership of the research process including methodologies and data used, and its delivery to clients.

Furthermore, you provide valuable sector knowledge and views to the bank's Risk & Portfolio Management departments. You will closely coordinate with Corporate Finance, Trade & Commodity Finance, M&A, and Relationship Bankers, taking an active role in setting the commercial agenda of the bank in the animal protein sector and identifying new themes and business opportunities.
