Trading Analyst in Zurich

Join the Trading team in Zurich, where you will help run pricing and risk across crypto, stocks, indices, forex, commodities and pre-IPO on one platform. CoinUnited has been building since 2018 and our markets never close. This in-office role supports daily pricing and risk monitoring across asset classes as the market moves around the clock.

This role is based in our Zurich office. The desk runs on Central European Time, covering the SMI and Swiss equities from the SIX open. Zurich also covers the franc, which behaves differently from the other European currencies we offer: it is where flow goes when traders want out of risk, so this desk is busiest on the days the rest of the market is falling.
