As a market maker, Virtu provides deep liquidity that helps to create more efficient markets around the world. Our market structure expertise, broad diversification, and execution technology enable us to provide competitive bids and offers in over 19,000 securities, at over 235 venues, in 36 countries worldwide.

## The Role

Our Operations team is looking for a Trading Operations Specialist to support client bookings and reporting for equities trading across the Asia Pacific region.

We seek candidates with technical experience, as you will also have the opportunity to work closely with software engineers to automate and enhance the robustness of the firm’s operations workflows. The Trading Operations Specialist will not only become an expert in the logistics and mechanics of trade clearance and settlement but will also play a crucial role in the ability of the firm and its clients to conduct trading efficiently and safely. Furthermore, you will represent the firm when dealing directly with external parties, requiring the ability to handle responsibility even under pressure.

## Candidate Profile

- Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills to navigate systems and diagnose issues.

- Willingness to work early shift hours (Sydney timezone).

- Familiarity with MS Excel and Outlook.

- Knowledge of SQL and Python is considered an advantage.

- Proactive, willing to learn, and able to perform effectively under pressure.

- Strong attention to detail and a customer service orientation.

- A smaller team environment comprising 15 professionals in Asia Pacific.

- A significant opportunity for upward and geographic mobility.

- Direct exposure to decision-makers and senior leaders across all sides of the business.
