Sales Trader recruitment

Excellent opportunity for a senior sales trader with strong knowledge of emerging markets (ideally new frontier markets) to contribute to the growth of this dynamic international broker. The firm specialises in the African equity market and specialist knowledge of this region will be an advantage but is not essential.

Key purpose of the role will be to build and manage international stockbroking deal flow and grow trading commission revenues for the firm. This will involve an element of business travel and requires applicants to demonstrate excellent communication skills to complement a highly commercial, revenue-driven approach and excellent technical ability.

The successful applicant will be a dynamic self-starter with the desire and ability to succeed in this highly competitive marketplace. The ability to build and maintain profitable client relationships is essential. Day to day the role will involve managing and growing the firm’s international deal flow, expanding the existing client base and the firm’s market share and working closely with colleagues in Sales and Research to convert prospects into active clients.
