Business Development Executive

We’re partnering with a global financial services firm specialising in FX risk management, international payments and institutional currency solutions, who are looking for ambitious people to join their growing New York team.

This is an opportunity for someone early in their career who is commercially driven, confident speaking with senior professionals and hungry to build something of their own .

You’ll work directly alongside experienced institutional sales professionals, learning how to identify opportunities, engage clients, understand complex financial products, and ultimately turn relationships into revenue.

This isn’t a role where you’ll be stuck behind a desk doing the same thing every day. You’ll be speaking with clients, developing relationships, building your pipeline and learning the commercial side of institutional markets from people who have done it themselves.

What You'll Be Doing

• Build and develop relationships with institutional clients across targeted sectors
• Identify, qualify and progress new business opportunities
• Engage with clients to understand their investment, FX and hedging requirements
• Support senior sales professionals on client meetings, pitches and proposals
• Develop expertise across FX, forwards and institutional hedging strategies
• Work closely with trading and operations teams to deliver an exceptional client experience
• Own your pipeline, manage your opportunities and maintain strong CRM discipline
• Progress towards independently managing and growing your own institutional relationships

What We're Looking For

• Has 1–4 years' professional experience
  • flexible for the right person
• Is commercially minded and naturally confident building relationships
• Has a genuine interest in capital markets, FX and institutional investing
• Is ambitious, competitive and motivated by progression and earning potential
• Can operate independently while working effectively with senior sales, trading and operations teams
• Has strong communication, organisation and follow-through
• Holds a Series 63/65 or equivalent , or is willing to obtain one

What's In It for You?

$70,000 base salary + competitive commission ($110k+ Y1 OTE)

Plus:

• Medical, dental & vision insurance
• 401(k) + Roth with company match
• 16 days PTO
• Short- & long-term disability coverage
• AD&D insurance
• Commuter benefits
• Pet insurance

You'll be surrounded by experienced institutional sales professionals and given the opportunity to develop the market knowledge, sales ability and client relationships required to progress into a larger revenue-generating role.

You'll learn how institutional clients think, how FX markets work, how to identify commercial opportunities and - most importantly - how to turn conversations into business.

If you're ambitious, commercially minded and want to build a career in institutional sales and capital markets , this is an opportunity to get your foot in the door and develop alongside an established global financial services business.
