Job description

Job Purpose

Market Supervision is the front-line operations team supporting the function and surveillance of thousands of global derivatives markets available across the ICE Exchanges. As a graduate analyst, you will be based in the ICE Futures Europe (IFEU) London Headquarters, primarily responsible for monitoring the IFEU market suite and supporting ICE Futures U.S., ICE Futures Singapore, ICE ENDEX, and ICE Futures Abu Dhabi Exchanges. The team collaborates across the ICE business and globally to uphold market integrity and transparency amid changing infrastructures and conditions.

Responsibilities

As a graduate analyst, you will participate in a unique training program designed to build a comprehensive understanding of financial markets and their operational processes. You will gain exposure to multiple international asset classes including Oil, Utilities, Soft Commodities, Fixed Income, and Indices.

You will contribute directly to operational oversight, development, execution, and response activities alongside other analysts, managers, directors, and department heads. Your key functions will include:

• Trade Investigations: Conduct time-sensitive investigations into unrepresentative trading activity, requiring robust and efficient decision-making.
• Official Exchange Settlement Prices: Calculate daily and final settlement prices accurately, which serve as benchmark reference prices and assist ICE Clear Europe in risk management.
• Price Management: Ensure order entry complies with price controls to reflect fair market values.
• Front-Line Support: Act as a primary contact for operational inquiries, providing exact, proactive, and professional responses.

Our training and development programs are vital for your success. You will have access to internal and external courses to develop technical, non-technical, and specialized skills, fostering continuous learning and growth.

Knowledge and Experience

ICE’s Market Supervision team offers graduates immersive exposure to the financial markets ecosystem. While your degree's subject area may provide a helpful foundation, we seek driven, inquisitive candidates eager to learn about the industry through our rigorous training.

We value individual strengths and attributes that enable success in a fast-paced environment. Candidates should be methodical, proficient problem solvers, and excellent communicators capable of liaising effectively with clients and colleagues at all levels.

As a technology-driven company, we expect candidates to have strong Microsoft application skills and an interest in further development. Candidates must be studying towards or have obtained a minimum 2:1 degree. While the degree discipline is flexible, an enthusiastic interest in financial markets is essential.
