Saima began her career in physical commodities trading in 2006. During her time at Sempra and JP Morgan, she ran a European gas trading portfolio. Most recently Saima set up and ran a liquefied natural gas trading business for a state-owned gas company. By building an international portfolio, Saima helped the country move towards cleaner fuels and away from a monopolist producer. Saima grew up with the confidence that she could do anything and be anything if she put her mind to it and worked hard yet recognises how lucky she has been to gain the opportunities she has had. Growing up on a council estate, being the first in her family to go to university, then landing a job at an investment bank is a story that is familiar to some but uncommon to many. Through Envision, she hopes to help others in realising and achieving their potential.
