As an OTC Sales Trader, you will support the pricing, execution, and settlement of over-the-counter (OTC) digital asset trades for institutional, corporate, and high-net-worth clients.

You will work closely with senior traders, sales, and operations teams to gain hands-on exposure to crypto markets, client interactions, and OTC trade workflows. This role is ideal for fresh graduates who are passionate about digital assets, eager to learn, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.

What You Will Do

  • Support order management while following established trading limits, risk controls, and compliance guidelines
  • Assist with settlement and post-trade processes, including wallet confirmations and basic reconciliation
  • Maintain accurate trade records and support reporting or documentation needs
  • Participate in client onboarding discussions to learn about trading mechanics, settlement flows, and supported assets
  • Collaborate with internal teams to understand client needs and contribute ideas for improving OTC processes

What We Are Looking For

  • Fresh graduates or candidates with up to 2 years of experience, preferably in finance, economics or related fields
  • Strong interest in cryptocurrency markets, trading, and digital assets
  • Basic understanding of financial markets or trading concepts (OTC knowledge is a plus)
  • Detail-oriented, eager to learn, and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment
  • Strong sense of responsibility and willingness to follow procedures and compliance requirements
  • Ability to work well in a team and take feedback positively
