The Program

The Commercial Development Program (CDP) is a structured, multi-year rotational program designed to develop Tricon's next generation of commercial leaders. Built for individuals with strong analytical ability, commercial intensity, and a drive to operate in fast-moving global markets, the program provides immersive exposure to the physical commodities business across trading-adjacent functions.

Participants will rotate through core commercial areas, gaining hands-on experience in how physical trades are structured, executed, priced, and risk-managed. The program blends on-the-job learning with formal training, mentorship from senior commercial professionals, and ongoing performance feedback to prepare participants for long-term careers in Tricon's commercial organization, with progression toward trader-facing or commercial roles.

International mobility is an important part of the program, and participants may be required to relocate to another Tricon office based on business needs, rotation opportunities, and long-term placement.
