Qualifications:
• Based in Hong Kong, with the right to work here.
• At least 5 years of equity trading experience, with a focus on APAC markets. Knowledge of futures is a plus.
• A proven client-facing track record, with the gravitas to deal confidently with senior buy-side professionals.
• A collaborative team player who works well across our Hong Kong, London and New York desks and shares market insight, coverage and best practice with colleagues
• Strong understanding of APAC equity market structure.
• Excellent communication, analytical and quantitative skills, with strong attention to detail.
