Junior Trader recruitment
In this challenging position you manage and optimize our daily position (pricing and trading) in a wide range of financial products, including equities, bonds, derivatives and complex structured products.
You formulate innovative trading strategies and – in close collaboration with our software engineers – develop trading models and tools that allow us to capitalize on opportunities swiftly and adequately. Because of the specific nature of the work-environment, we do not expect you to plunge headfirst into your new job. Instead, you will start by following in a two months intensive in-house training program that covers all the intricate details of arbitrage trading processes. As a member of an informal team, you will then gradually take on more responsibilities, start monitoring markets and only then start making split-second portfolio adjustments that are at the heart of our success. From trading to devising tactics, and from contributing to new tools to implementing actual programs: you help shape our trading strategy.
