About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing proprietary market maker trading digital asset derivatives and spot globally, 24/7, with its own capital. Traders sit metres from researchers and engineers, so the path from a market read to live PnL is short.

• Prop trading or hedge fund experience, particularly mid-frequency strategies.
• Exposure to prediction markets or DeFi.
• Crypto experience is not required: strong derivatives traders from other asset classes are welcome.

• Own the systems trading the firm’s capital.
• Base plus strong performance bonus, with the opportunity to invest in the trading fund.
• Visa sponsorship, full relocation package and potential eligibility for the 30% ruling.
