Executing Relationship Broker
PEAK6 is a leading investment firm headquartered in Chicago. More than 20 years ago, we were one of the first firms to develop sophisticated proprietary technology in our trading business. Today, we leverage our technical ingenuity and operational ability across a number of investment areas, spanning early- to mid-stage growth capital, operational control, trading, and sports management, with an eye toward providing value to the customer. Over the years, we have built and operated several leading financial technology firms and today our team includes a digital wealth clearinghouse, an outsource provider of flood insurance, a Premier League soccer team, a value investment arm, an incubation lab, and more.
As a member on our Executing Desk at PEAK6 Capital Management, you’ll have a big impact on the firm. You’ll work within our proprietary trading entity and have genuine opportunities to partner with PEAK6 Traders and our broker community. This is a role for someone who flourishes in a fast paced environment, has great relationship building skills, and has a solid understanding of options theory. This role will report to the Execution Desk Manager who reports into our Chief Operating Officer.
You’ll be responsible for:
- Being the face of PEAK6 for the broker community
- Develop and maintain relationships with Brokers, Traders, and Research Analysts to execute our initiatives
- Working closely with Operations and Compliance and building that partnership
- Negotiating pricing and booking options trades without taking on any of the risk
You’ll gain loads of experience in this role but before you do, you should have:
- Strong understanding of Options and Trading
- Strong critical thinking skills with the ability to understand, analyze and creatively solve problems
- Strong sense of urgency when it comes to working with trading
- Must have your Series 57
- Flexibility to attend Broker Outings sometimes up to 2 nights a week
- Ability to work in a fast paced environment and keeping up with phone calls and chat messages throughout the day
All of our team members have these traits. You should, too.
