European Dividend Trader
ABOUT THE POSITION
We are looking for a Dividend Trader based in London to work closely with our global options team and help build out our European dividend trading capabilities. In this role, you'll trade index and single stock dividend futures, manage dividend exposure arising from our broader options portfolio, and identify opportunities to grow our presence in this space.
Dividend trading at Jane Street interfaces closely with our single stock and index options businesses. You'll collaborate with colleagues across products and regions, contributing to idea generation, risk management, and strategic positioning. We are actively expanding our dividend trading capabilities and are looking for someone who brings product expertise and market intuition to help us develop this area. Your understanding of the dividend landscape, ability to spot relative value, and willingness to push us in new directions will be instrumental in our growth.
