Job description

Clear Street is modernizing the brokerage ecosystem. Founded in 2018, Clear Street is a diversified financial services firm replacing the legacy infrastructure used across capital markets.

We started from scratch by building a completely cloud-native clearing and custody system designed for today’s complex, global market. Our platform is fully integrated with central clearing houses and exchanges to support billions in trading volume per day. We’ve agonized about our data model abstractions, created horizontal scalability, and crafted thoughtful APIs. All so we can provide a best-in-class experience for our clients.

By combining highly-skilled product and engineering talent with seasoned finance professionals, we’re building the essentials to compete in today’s fast-paced markets.

The Role:

We are looking to hire a Junior LME Sales Associate to join our LME team. This is an opportunity for a highly motivated person to join an established team and support in building out and growing client relationships across the metals markets, delivering excellent service through the full trade lifecycle.

The Team:

Clear Street’s mission is to become a single-source platform that serves a variety of investor types across multiple asset classes on a global scale. The Clear Street UK team is bringing Clear Street’s established equities, options, and fixed-income prime brokerage business to a new market.

Responsibilities:

• Assist with day-to-day coverage of hedge funds, producers, merchants and brokers active in LME metals
• Track client activity and pipeline
• Monitor order status
• Support on post-trade issues
• Draft relevant market content for review
• Stay abreast of daily news flow and market activity
• Support onboarding

Skills required:

• Exposure to markets, sales support, execution, operations or research (metals experience is advantageous)
• Familiarity with the LME market
• Strong analytical skills
• Comfortable working with large data sets
• Clear and concise writing for market insight
• Confident communicator with the ability to build relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
• Thoughtful and highly analytic approach with attention to detail and a strong work ethic.

We Offer:

At Clear Street, we offer competitive compensation packages, company equity, pension, gender neutral parental leave, and full medical and dental insurance. Our belief has always been that we are better as a business when we are all together in person. As such, we are requiring employees to be in the office a minimum of three days per week.

Our top priority is our people. We’re continuously investing in a culture that promotes collaboration. We help each other through challenges and celebrate each other's successes. We believe that modern workplaces succeed by virtue of having high-performance workforces that are diverse — in ideas, in cultures, and in experiences. We put in the effort to make such a workplace a daily reality and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
