Execution Broker - Listed Derivatives

Function: Execution Broker — Listed Derivatives (Institutional Flow)

Department: KCA

Compensation: Between USD 150'000 and 225'000 per year

Location: New York | Build a Platform | True Order Ownership

This is a rare opportunity to build and shape the U.S. listed derivatives execution platform for an established global financial institution expanding its footprint in New York.

The role sits at the heart of institutional order flow, with real ownership of execution across time zones — bridging European liquidity with U.S. markets and directly influencing how orders are handled, routed, and executed.

You will be part of a fully integrated transatlantic derivatives team, working in continuous coordination with colleagues in New York and Europe. This is a collaborative platform — not a silo — with constant communication, shared coverage, and unified execution standards across regions.

If you want a seat where execution still means judgment, responsibility, and impact — not just button-pushing — this is it.
