GENEVA (Reuters) – co*modities trading firm Trafigura said on Tuesday it has appointed Richard Holtum as its global head of a newly co*bined gas and power division.
Holtum has also beco*e the 11th member of the Geneva-based co*pany’s management co*mittee.
He was previously Trafigura’s global head of gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) trading after joining the LNG desk in 2014. Prior to joining Trafigura, Holtum was on the crude desk at Glencore and served in the British Army.
Igor Marin has been appointed global head of power trading, the co*pany added.
