Market Intelligence & Strategy Specialist

We are hiring a Market Intelligence & Strategy Specialist to serve as the company's internal strategic advisor in India. This role is responsible for helping the business understand how the India opportunity really works in practice, including client behavior, market constraints, competitor models, channel effectiveness, and the structural reasons some brokers gain traction while others fail.

The role will assess whether and how the company should scale in the India FX/CFD vertical, what success would realistically require, where the current model can improve, and what commercial, operational, and local-market adjustments are needed to support sustainable growth.

Responsibilities

• Conduct deep market analysis on the India FX/CFD landscape, including client segments, trading behavior, deposit and withdrawal expectations, trust barriers, retention patterns, and growth potential
• Build a clear view of the competitive landscape, including how offshore brokers position themselves, acquire clients, use IB and affiliate networks, localize their offering, and convert market demand into revenue
• Monitor changes in the legal and operating environment affecting India, including restrictions around resident participation in offshore leveraged forex and CFD activity, and translate these into practical business implications
• Identify why certain competitors are succeeding in India, including advantages in product, pricing, payment experience, speed, partner networks, local relevance, service model, or execution quality
• Evaluate gaps in the company's current India approach and recommend realistic improvements across go-to-market strategy, channel mix, partner model, customer journey, and local operating support
• Provide structured, commercially useful recommendations to leadership on whether India should be prioritized, how the market should be approached, and what level of HQ versus local ownership is needed
• Work closely with regional and HQ stakeholders to convert market insight into action plans, operating priorities, and better alignment across teams
• Support the development of practical frameworks, playbooks, and SOPs that improve decision-making and execution for the India market

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Marketing, or a related field
• Minimum of 5-8 years of progressive professional experience, with at least 3 years relevant experience in the Indian market within a CFD broker or closely related trading/financial services business.
• Strong working knowledge of the India market, including client behavior, competitor strategies, IB and affiliate ecosystems, acquisition channels, and local commercial realities
• Strong understanding of the legal and practical constraints surrounding FX/CFD activity in India, especially the distinction between permitted exchange‑traded activity and offshore leveraged offerings targeted at residents
• Proven ability to turn ambiguous market questions into structured analysis, sharp insights, and practical recommendations for senior stakeholders
• Strong analytical, commercial, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to challenge assumptions and influence market decisions with evidence
• Experience working across local and HQ teams in a matrix environment is strongly preferred
• Prior experience inside a CFD broker, multi‑asset broker, fintech trading business, or a market intelligence / strategy role covering India is highly preferred
