Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets.

We are currently hiring a Data Analyst to join our Event Analysis and Insight team.

• Have a good knowledge of Python for data manipulation and visualization
• Thrive in environments where multitasking is routine and can prioritize tasks effectively.
• Thrive in a fast-paced working environment
• Ability to work off hours when necessary

What you’ll be working on:

• Analyzing non-financial post event data in order to gain insight and discover potential issues.
• Creating reports and visualizations to help bring forward relevant information to the stake holders.
• Collaborating with the development team to improve and/or create the necessary analysis tools.
