KPI Bridge Oil trader relocates to Greece


Greek national, Jenny Kofiani Tomacoglu, moves from Istanbul to Athens.



KPI Bridge Oil, a trader and broker in marine fuels, marine lubricants and risk management products, has confirmed the relocation of bunker and lubricant trader Jenny Kofiani Tomacoglu [pictured] to its Athens office. The announcement comes in the same week that another member of staff, Dimitrios Bouzoukis, has been named senior bunker and lubricant trader in Greece.

Kofiani, who has been working for two years at KPI Bridge Oil Istanbul, said of her relocation: "Being a Greek national and being offered the opportunity to return home after having explored other parts of the world is indeed encouraging to the rest of our organisation. KPI Bridge Oil always do their best to cater to their employees' mobility and personal wishes."

KPI Bridge Oil Athens Managing Director, Jesper D. Rasmussen, remarked: "With an organisation of this size, it is natural to asses and utilize the group's resources in mind of commercial objectives. In analyzing Jenny's strengths, it became clear she was a perfect fit for the Athens team. Considering her suitability and her wishes to return to Greece, both personal and business interests were served.

"I am glad we are able to offer movement and flexibility to our people, it is certainly a benefit of working with the group."

Kofiani has a master's degree from the American College in Athens. Her first language is Greek and she is also fluent in both English and Turkish.

Commenting on Kofiani's connections in the Greek market, KPI Bridge Oil said: "Jenny is already established within the Greek maritime industry, her addition to KPI Bridge Oil Athens brings valuable marine fuels and lubricants trading experience and also useful connections to the team."

Referring to the company's hiring programme in Greece, Rasmussen said: "Though we have made great headway in building this remarkable team here in Greece we are still in the recruitment process. I welcome experienced traders to get in touch directly if they are interested in becoming a part of the Athens team."
