About the role

The Trading team is seeking a (Junior) Macro Trader who is highly analytical, intellectually curious, and a creative problem-solver with excellent verbal and written communication skills. The ideal candidate thrives in a collaborative environment that values individual initiative, innovation, and smart risk-taking. This role requires a strong understanding of and experience in trading macro products such as FX, rates, commodities, and futures. While prior experience in all product areas is not required, the successful candidate will be expected to develop a broad understanding over time. The trader will be responsible not only for executing trade orders initiated by the Portfolio Manager but also for contributing insights on trading flow dynamics and generating analytics on trading technicals. Daily interaction with sell-side sales, trading, and internal Portfolio Managers, risk and quant teams are expected, so established street relationships and teamwork are essential.
