Description du poste

Want to see what you can do when the traders actually rely on you?

This is your chance to join one of the top proprietary trading firms in the market, where trade support isn’t a back-office function. It’s the engine room of the desk.

You won’t be buried in spreadsheets waiting for someone to notice your work. You’ll sit with the traders, see the impact of what you build every single day, and get the kind of exposure most people in ops spend years chasing.

Why people want this seat

• Your Python tools won’t sit on a shelf. They’ll go live and make a visible difference to how the desk trades
• You’ll work directly with traders who value your input and act on it
• You’ll learn more about derivatives in a year here than in five years somewhere slower
• People from this team have moved into trading and technology roles across the firm. This is a launchpad, not a dead end
• Prop trading means real money, fast decisions and an environment where good people get noticed

What you’ll be doing

• Automating anything manual and building the tools traders use to spot issues before they happen
• Running the full derivatives lifecycle: trade capture, reconciliation, settlement and P&L
• Hunting down breaks, fixing them and making sure they never come back
• Going straight into SQL to query and fix data
• Being the go-to person for traders and middle office when something needs sorting

What you need

• Strong Python with a track record of automating and building tools
• Derivatives experience in trade support, middle office or operations
• Confident SQL and basic Linux
• The confidence to talk straight with traders when it matters

Five days a week on site in Central London, right on the desk where it all happens.
