Global commodities broker Marex Spectron has strengthened its broking desk with the addition of Dave Cullen and Archie Chandler, who will man the group’s newly launched clean petroleum broking unit, according to a Marex Spectron statement.

To unlock the Asian market, register now to the iFX EXPO in Hong Kong.

In their new roles both Mr. Cullen and Mr. Chandler will be based out of London, where they will be reporting to Simen Ebbesen, Marex Spectron’s Head of Physical Tankers. The two brokers will also be working in tandem with Nils Arnesen, the group’s Head of Tanker Freight Derivatives.

The joint appointments will be tendered by Q1 2017, with the newly created unit focusing on clean petroleum products in the Black Sea, Mediterranean, Baltic, and Continental markets. In particular, Marex Spectron’s investment in physical ship broking will aim to help complement its existing tanker derivatives team, which saw a string of recent hires.
