Danish energy trader InCommodities, backed by Goldman Sachs, has appointed John Dimech, a former Shell executive, as CEO of InCommodities APAC, the company said on Monday.
Dimech, who spent most of his career at Shell in trading and risk management, has led large-scale commercial operations across oil, gas, and power markets.
He will assume the role on February 2, based in Melbourne, where he will oversee the development and expansion of InCommodities’ Asia-Pacific business into new regional markets.
InCommodities APAC operates autonomously within the group, trading power across liberalising Asia-Pacific energy markets. The unit currently employs around 30 staff across Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, with plans to expand further as regional markets open up.
The company, in which Goldman Sachs and other investors hold a 15% stake, has also expanded its operations in the United States, underscoring its global growth ambitions.
