The Role

This position sits at the intersection of trading, compliance and technology, providing both strategic input and hands-on execution.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Monitoring trading activity and assessing interaction with control mechanisms as volumes and strategies evolve

Your Profile

  • 8+ years of experience in trading controls, market structure, or electronic trading compliance
  • Strong understanding of Korea Exchange rules and trading regulations
  • Familiarity with electronic trading systems and control frameworks
  • Ability to work cross-functionally with traders, developers and compliance stakeholders
  • Korean and English fluency required

Why This Opportunity

  • Exposure to a highly sophisticated electronic/quantitative trading environment
  • Significant influence over how trading controls are designed and implemented across Asia
  • Collaborative, non-bureaucratic culture with direct access to decision-makers
  • Opportunity to sit close to the business and impact growth in Korea markets
