Distribution and Liquidity Management
Skills
About the Role
You will join a small, collaborative and highly technical team helping to build and improve a rapidly growing client business spanning equities, FX, precious metals, ETFs and other products. You'll start by managing a portfolio of existing equities and FX clients, then grow into a cross-asset role as responsibilities expand alongside the firm's rapidly growing US business. You will get full exposure to the workings of the business, blending what are typically three distinct roles at competitors: e-trading, e-sales and product. You'll play an active role in shaping market structure rather than passively accepting the status quo, working to achieve things others consider impossible.
