    • Deep understanding of market structure, execution, risk, and strategy implementation in your chosen asset class.

    • Strong communication and trade rationale reporting skills.

    • Proven ability to operate within a team-based, performance-driven trading environment.

    • Futures

    • Manage real capital allocations between £250,000–£5,000,000+, with scaling tied to performance.

    • Enjoy direct market access, low-latency execution, and institutional-grade platform support.
