Global Head of Corporate Communications

STX Group is a market maker in environmental commodities (e.g., carbon credits, biofuels, and renewables) and only trades in products that contribute to reducing CO2 emissions. The Global Head of Corporate Communications of the B2B scaleup will oversee all internal and external communications and build and manage a solid team.

About STX Group

Urged on by regulations, shareholders, and corporate responsibility standards, companies today are constantly trying to reduce their carbon footprint. Market maker STX supports these businesses in their pursuit by trading a wide variety of renewable energy products such as renewables, biofuels, and carbon credits. In doing so, the company invigorates the environmental commodities market’s liquidity, transparency, and availability. STX believes this makes a little – but essential – contribution to the decarbonization of the global economy.

As a specialist trader in environmental commodities, STX does not build wind farms, operate solar parks, or execute large energy reduction projects. But with its everyday work, the company strengthens the reliability and professionalism of these markets, increasing the confidence in sustainable investments. That is how STX has helped build trust in renewables markets, stimulating the transition away from pollution and the depletion of natural resources.

STX is a global company headquartered in Amsterdam with offices in New York, Singapore, Lyon, and Goteborg. The scaleup currently employs over three hundred bright minds and expects to triple that number within the next few years. So far, the scaleup has been operating mainly under the radar. Part of its ambitious growth strategy is to strengthen its positioning as a reliable market maker and thought leader in environmental commodities.
