What You Can Earn

Position Details

BDE/Account Manager— Financial Markets

Fortrade Ltd

• Watford, Hertfordshire
• Office Based
• Full Time

£26,500 rising to £27,500 after probation

• Performance-based commission
• One week fully paid training

The Opportunity

Most companies talk about progression. At Fortrade, your numbers do the talking.

We are a global CFD and Forex trading provider, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA Reference: 609970), established in 2013. Our Watford team works exclusively with UK-based FCA clients in a non-advisory, execution-only environment.

We are growing and we are looking for people who want to grow with us — not just fill a seat.

What You Will Do

You will join our conversion team, speaking daily with clients who have already shown interest in our platform. Your job is simple in theory and demanding in practice:

• Build genuine relationships with clients over the phone and by email
• Provide clear, fair information on our products, platform and educational services
• Support clients through to creating and activating their live account

No cold calling. Every person you speak to has already registered with us.

The Growth Path

This is where it gets interesting.

Start as an Account Manager on the conversion floor. Prove yourself. When your numbers are talking consistently, not occasionally and the door to Senior Account Manager (Retention) opens. That means managing clients who have already deposited, building long‑term relationships and a significantly higher earning ceiling.

The timeline is yours to control. We have seen it happen in four months.

What You Can Earn

Account Manager: Up to £35,000 – £38,000

Senior Account Manager: Up to £60,000 – £65,000

Commission is performance-based and in line with responsible practices. Where you land depends entirely on your results.

What We Are Looking For

• A natural communicator - someone people warm to quickly
• Resilience under pressure. Not every call goes your way
• Hunger to grow, not just to start
• Coachable - the system works if you work it
• Professional telephone manner and strong written communication
• Commitment to ethical conduct and FCA compliance standards

No finance degree needed. Attitude and drive will take you further here than any qualification.

What You Get

• One week fully paid in-house training before you take a single call
• Performance-based commission from your first conversion
• Weekly and monthly incentives — when the team hits the target, the team goes for lunch
• Annual salary review
• Fast-track progression — based entirely on performance
• Contributory pension after 3 months
• Employee Assistance Programme — free wellbeing support for you and your family
• Annual eye test
• Complimentary snacks and coffee
• Free on-site parking

If your numbers talk, we will listen.
