Join the game-changers

We are a global leader in the financial services industry and a FTSE250 company currently recruiting for a Trading Services Analyst with a genuine interest in learning more about the financial markets. We’ll provide on-the-job training and support to help ensure you quickly pick up the necessary knowledge and understanding.

So, who are we?

Hello, we’re IG Group. No, not Instagram – though we're a pretty big deal ourselves. We’re a global, FTSE 250-listed company made up of a collection of progressive FinTech brands in the world of online trading and investing.

The best part? We’ve snapped up many awards for our top-class platforms,

forward-thinking products, and incredible employee experiences.

We believe in financial freedom. And our purpose is to help ambitious people achieve it. Around 400,000 people use our groundbreaking technology and forward-thinking platforms to trade the financial products they know and love.

Did we mention we have offices in 18 countries? Yes, when you join IG Group, you'll have the chance to work across multiple brands, with people all over the world. Join us for an exciting future and let’s innovate together!

What you’ll do

Your scope of duties will be focused on:

• Providing front line support to our clients across phone, email, web chat and social media
• Answering queries from our client base on all of our products and platforms
• Resolving trade queries and disputes
• Dealing and executing trades for our clients over the phone (after a relevant training) - this is execution-only dealing (we do not give any trading advice)
• Providing clients with technical support with our front-end platforms and chart packages
• Conducting audit checks and client administration tasks
• Participating in and running various local and international projects or initiatives.

In doing so, you'll gain a strong understanding of financial markets, stock exchanges, macro-economic events and various financial instruments (stocks and derivatives).

You'll also benefit from exposure to a vibrant, commercially driven environment, with development opportunities encompassing everything from client reactivation and retention, premium client service, Trading Services specialisms, as well as dealing and managerial roles.

Who we’re looking for?

You’re curious about things like the client experience, the rapid developments in tech, and the complex world of FinTech regulation. You’re also a confident, creative thinker with a knack for innovating. We know that you know every problem has a solution. Here, you can try new ideas, and lead the way in creating inspiring experiences for our clients and everyone around you.

We don’t fit the corporate stereotype. If you want to work for a traditional, suit-and-tie corporate that just gives you a pay cheque at the end of the month, we might not be for you. But, if you have that IG Group energy and you can stand behind what we believe in, let’s raise the bar together.

What you’ll need for this role

You don’t need a background in finance to apply although this is highly desirable. We’ll provide on-the-job training and support to help ensure you quickly pick up the necessary knowledge and understanding. What you will need is a genuine interest in working in financial markets and client services, along with motivation levels as impressive as your aptitude for numbers and attention to detail – plus:

• A degree-level education
• Fluency in primary support language: Spanish (written and spoken)
• Fluent competency in English (written and spoken) and at least B2 in Portuguese
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• A logical and analytical approach to problem solving
• Confidence to employ basic maths skills, particularly mental arithmetic
• Strong organisational and time management skills
• Ability to work under pressure
• Literacy in MS Office

Desirable:

• Experience of working within a financial or banking environment, or experience of working in a client servicing team or sales
• Good working knowledge of any additional European language would be a distinct advantage.

How you’ll grow

When you join IG Group, we want you to have more than a job – we want you to have a career. And you can. If you spot an opportunity, we want you to chase it. Stretch yourself, challenge your self-beliefs and go for the things you dream of. With internal and external learning opportunities, and the tools to help you skyrocket to success, we’ll support you all the way.

And these opportunities truly are endless because we have some bold targets. We plan to expand our global presence, increase revenue growth, and ultimately deliver the world’s best trading experience. We’d love to have you along for the ride.

Where you’ll work

We follow a hybrid working model; we reckon it’s the best of both worlds.  This model also feeds into our secret ingredients for innovation: diversity, flexibility, and close connection. Plus, you’ll be welcomed into a diverse and inclusive workforce with a lot of creative energy.

Ask our employees what their favorite thing is about working at IG, and you’ll hear an echo of ‘our culture’! That’s because you can come to work as your authentic self. The things that make you, you – like your ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith, age, gender identity/expression or physical capacity – can bring a fresh perspective or new skill to our business.

That’s why we welcome people from various walks of life; and anyone who wants to help us realize our vision and strategy.

So, if you’re keen to connect with our values, and lead the charge on innovation, you know what to do.

From the team
