Technical Project Manager - Frequency Trading

My client, a leading high frequency trading firm, is seeking a Technical Manager to join their London team.

This is a rare opportunity to own the build-out of the tooling that underpins a live electronic trading environment. Sitting close to the trading floor, you will lead the design and delivery of capabilities across live trading monitoring, trading limits, and electronic trading controls - shaping how these are standardised and applied consistently across every trading system and platform in the firm.

It is a genuinely high-visibility mandate with real influence over how the business trades day to day.

You will work hand in hand with Production Trading Services as your key business stakeholder, alongside Trading and Technology, giving you a broad view of the trading stack and direct access to the people who use what you build. The remit is hands-on, technically demanding and varied for a delivery role.

The ideal candidate will combine strong end-to-end technical programme delivery with applied knowledge of electronic trading. Experience in high-frequency, low-latency, systematic or complex trading environments is particularly attractive, as is a track record of delivering trading technology, tooling or platform initiatives.

Please note this is not a Controls, Risk or Compliance hire - the firm is specifically seeking applied electronic trading controls knowledge gained in trading technology, Trade Floor Support or HFT/low-latency environments.

My client offers a highly competitive compensation package, including significant increases on current base salary and market-leading bonuses, alongside excellent benefits and long-term career progression within one of the strongest-performing firms in the market.
