Intro and Advice or any Insights Needed

Hello WSO Community! I’m a Metallurgical Engineer with a background in the non-ferrous metals sector, especially nickel and cobalt. My journey has been rich with experience in process optimization, R&D, and sustainability within extractive industries. Recently, I’ve become intrigued by the world of commodity trading and strategic supply chain management, especially as I explore opportunities with companies like Glencore. I’m eager to leverage my technical expertise in a more dynamic, market-oriented role. Has anyone here made a similar transition, or does anyone have advice on how to navigate this career shift? I’d love to hear your thoughts on how I can best position myself for success in this new field. Also, I’m new here and the welcome message said would be good to introduce myself 😊 ... so hello! Excited to dive into discussions and learn from this knowledgeable community. 😊 Looking forward to your insights!
