Effective December 1, Martin Vorgod is due to take the helm as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of fuel hedging firm Global Risk Management (GRM). Currently serving as the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), Vorgod has been instrumental in driving the company's focus on enhancing its operations and fostering closer ties with maritime clients whilst embracing the green transition through innovative solutions in energy and emission certificates.

Vorgod’s leadership journey is backed by a wealth of experience in sales and commodity trading, particularly during his time as Global Head of FX Sales at Danske Bank. There, he played a pivotal role in the bank's commodity trading strategies and was noted for revitalising its foreign exchange trading operations while based in New York. His efforts reportedly contributed to establishing a strong corporate culture within the bank, further solidifying his reputation as a strategic and effective leader.

As CCO at GRM, Vorgod is said to have achieved commendable results, successfully securing new clients and strengthening existing partnerships. This track record positions him well for his upcoming role as CEO, where he aims to build on his extensive familiarity with the company and its operations. He will succeed Peder Møller, who is set to transition into the role of Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Bunker Holding Group.

With his appointment, Vorgod is tasked with steeting GRM towards future growth, focusing on innovative approaches and expanding its market presence in an increasingly competitive landscape.
