Responsibilities
Altruist's Trade Desk sits at the center of the advisor experience: every order, correction, and market event runs through it. As we launch Margin and Options and expand fixed income, we're hiring a Manager, Trading as a desk generalist to run daily workflows and the trade lifecycle across equities, options, and fixed income, while supporting Credit Risk functions.
This role sits within the Trading & Brokerage Operations organization and reports to [reporting manager]. It is an individual contributor role, not a people leadership role: a functional manager seat one step up from the Senior Analyst level, with deeper ownership of daily workflows, escalations, and process quality. It is built for someone who aspires to lead and wants to earn that seat by mastering the function first.
