Alternative Trading Systems

The Alternative Trading Systems (ATS) market has become increasingly buoyant over recent years and we have found a continuous need for professionals with expertise in ATS.

Due to our industry focus, which has covered Equities from our inception, we’ve seen a rapid growth and popularity of Alternative Trading Systems, Electronic Communications Networks (ECN), Crossing Networks and Dark Pools, all of which are the result of a technology evolution, the increasing willingness of the investment community to trade without brokers and a favorable regulatory climate.

The volumes of Dark Pool trading has increased and there are more organizations entering into the Dark Pool market every day. As a result we have found a continuous need for profiles such as Program / Project Manager, Business Analyst, Developer and Support Analysts with expert knowledge of Dark Pools, Alternative Trading Systems (ATS), ECN and/or Crossing Networks.
