Our mission is to enable everyone to build wealth

We reinvent how trading and investing work by creating exceptional products people love. Fostering a culture of excellence and high velocity is the key to our success. Тoday, we serve over 7 million clients, with more than €38 billion in assets under management - a testament to the scale and trust we’ve built in just a few years.

The role

We are looking for a driven Trading Operations Specialist (with 1-3 years experience) to join our Trading Operations Team. You’ll take your operational experience further - learning how a fast-moving fintech runs its post-trade infrastructure, contributing to how it runs and developing the expertise to improve it.

What you'll do

  • Gain in-depth knowledge of daily processes across the trade lifecycle - not just execute them, but actively improve them where necessary.

  • Act as a subject matter point of contact within the Trading Operations domain.

  • Investigate and resolve discrepancies with a structured, analytical approach, and document your findings in a way that prevents recurrence.

  • Write and maintain SOPs and control documentation to a high standard.

  • Engage directly with brokers, custodians, and internal teams across the firm, representing Trading Operations with confidence and clarity.

  • Support senior team members on firm wide developments and strategic projects.

What you need to have

  • 1–3 years of experience in trading operations, settlements, or a closely related post-trade function.

  • An undergraduate degree.

  • Experience in trade/position reconciliations and break resolutions.

  • A track record of not just completing tasks but questioning and improving the processes behind them.

  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to cut through complexity and communicate conclusions clearly to both operational and non-operational audiences.

  • An appetite for automation and tooling; you'd rather build a smarter process than repeat the same manual task indefinitely.

  • Confidence to engage cross-functionally and challenge existing approaches constructively.

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of settlement flows across multiple markets.

  • Familiarity with custodian or broker platforms.

  • Proficiency in SQL, Python, APIs and/or similar tools.

What we offer

  • Challenges that will help you grow and realise your potential fast

  • Opportunity to make a significant impact - you will build innovative services used by millions of investors to build wealth

  • Work with smart, high performing colleagues with a common goal

  • An environment where nothing is set in stone

  • Appreciation for your talent and ideas

  • Generous remuneration package
