Trade Finance Analyst - AR
Job Description
Trade Finance Analyst – AR | Commodity Trading | Houston (Energy Corridor)
UNITY is partnering with a Houston-based commodity trading organization to identify a Trade Finance Analyst, AR to join its finance and commercial operations team.

The AR Financial Analyst will take ownership of customer invoicing, receivables, cash forecasting, trade finance documentation, customer credit and AML/KYC processes, while developing a strong understanding of the commercial activity behind each transaction.
Key Responsibilities
This is an excellent opportunity for an analyst who wants to move beyond transactional AR and build broader experience across commodity trading, commercial finance, credit, cash management, and trade finance.
