- Represent Kpler at industry events, webinars, and conferences; contribute to media outreach and build Kpler's profile within the metals community.
- Translate complex data and analysis into clear commercial narratives for client engagement alongside Sales and Customer Success.
- Identify gaps in Kpler's metals coverage and contribute to the product roadmap by surfacing analytical needs and proposing data enhancements; collaborate with Marketing on thought leadership content and event programming.
