What You'll Be Working On

In this role, you'll take the lead on growing a portfolio of high-net-worth and professional trading clients across New Zealand, identifying new market opportunities, deepening existing relationships, and bringing in new ones. Day to day, you'll be executing trades, delivering sharp market insights, and handling sophisticated client queries that keep even the most experienced traders on their toes. You'll also be the face of the business at premium client seminars, workshops, and tailored educational events, where your ability to translate complex market dynamics into compelling narratives will set you apart. If you thrive on building meaningful client relationships and working at the sharp end of financial markets, this is a role where you'll do your best work.

What Will Help You Be Successful

You don't need a specific background to thrive here, but you do need to love the markets. Whether you've traded yourself or simply can't stop following global economic trends, that genuine passion will resonate with clients and set the tone for every conversation. You understand instinctively what a client is feeling, you know when to add value and when to listen, and you're disciplined in how you manage your pipeline: timely follow-ups, well-nurtured relationships, and a structured approach that keeps nothing slipping through the cracks. Most importantly, your clients feel genuinely looked after. If you've built a career in sales or business development on a foundation of authenticity, trust, and going the extra mile, you'll feel right at home here.
