Client: Elite Tech Driven Trading Firm

Compensation: Up to £100,000 Starting Base + Industry Leading Bonus + Benefits

Location: London (Hybrid)

Overview

Join a highly regarded, innovation-led financial technology firm leveraging cutting-edge systems. This automation-focused role is designed for a proactive engineer who thrives in a high-standards environment but values a healthier work–life balance than many comparable trading opportunities.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Providing expert on-site and remote desktop support in a high-availability Windows environment
  • Troubleshooting complex hardware, Microsoft 365, and identity/access-related issues
  • Driving efficiency by automating deployments and system fixes using PowerShell and scripts
  • Managing the full incident lifecycle and collaborating closely with internal infrastructure teams
  • Providing end-to-end support (1st through to 3rd line) to ensure minimal downtime
  • Participating in a rotational on-call support schedule to maintain 24/7 business continuity

Requirements

  • Technical Core: Strong experience with Windows, Microsoft 365, and Active Directory
  • Experience: Practical background in fast-paced, time-critical environments (Industry or trading floor experience is highly desired)
  • Automation: Ability to use PowerShell or scripting to streamline repetitive tasks
  • Problem Solving: Exceptional analytical skills and a strong customer-centric focus
  • Mindset: Eager, motivated, and ready to take ownership of new challenges
  • Flexibility: Ability to participate in rotational on-call shifts and work in a hybrid capacity

What’s on Offer

  • Exceptional starting base salary up to £100,000
  • Industry-leading bonus structure and comprehensive benefits
  • A healthier work-life balance compared to typical high-frequency trading firms
  • Exposure to elite, cutting-edge financial technology and systems
  • A clear path for career progression and technical skill development
  • Collaborative and supportive culture within a premier London-based firm
