Job Description

Junior Events Trader | CME Event Markets | Ground Floor Opportunity

Dubai, Brazil, US, UK, France, Japan, Germany, Italy

The Opportunity

A successful US-based market making firm is launching a pioneering desk focused on event markets trading via CME—one of only a handful of firms with access to 7-day Event Markets (similar to Kalshi and Polymarket, but through regulated exchanges).

They're building a team of 5 junior traders to establish a first-mover advantage in this emerging space.

Why This Role Is Different

This isn't your standard trading position. You're joining at the absolute ground floor of what could become a significant new market, or you're part of an experiment that doesn't pan out. Either way, you'll know within 12 months.

If you're someone who:

  • Gets energized by prediction markets and event-driven trading
  • Wants equity-like upside without waiting years to prove yourself
  • Prefers being a pioneer over joining an established desk
  • Can handle uncertainty in exchange for asymmetric opportunity

...this could be the role you've been looking for.

Compensation

Year 1: $60-120K USD guaranteed base

Year 2+: If the desk succeeds, expect multiples of your base as the market scales

What We're Looking For

  • Interest in event markets, prediction markets, or unique trading opportunities
  • Willingness to take calculated career risk for outsized reward
  • Work authorization in one of the listed locations
  • Analytical mindset and quick learner mentality
