About Revolut People deserve more from their money. More visibility, more control, more freedom. And since 2015, Revolut has been on a mission to deliver just that. With an arsenal of awesome products that span spending, saving, travel, transfers, investing, exchanging and more, we've helped 40 million customers get more from their money. And we're not done yet.

As we continue our lightning-fast growth,? two things are essential to continuing our success: our people and our culture. We've been officially certified as a Great Place to Work™ in recognition of our outstanding employee experience! So far, we have 10,000 people working around the world, from our great offices or remotely, on our mission. And we're looking for more. We want brilliant people that love building great products, love redefining success, and love turning the complexity of a chaotic world into the simplicity of a beautiful solution.

About the role At Revolut, we do Ops differently. Our hyper-talented Operations experts don't just keep things ticking over, they're given the most complex, hard-to-solve problems in the business. Then they create elegant, scalable solutions that keep pace with our ambitious growth plans. Without our Ops team, we'd be following the herd, not leading the pack - and that's a place we never want to be

We're looking for a strong trader to sit within our electronic trading desk. You will be given varying tasks and problems within trading, giving you breadth and depth of experience unmatched in almost any other job and the chance to have an impact on Revolut's success. You will receive hands-on training from the team and develop your analytical, problem-solving, and technical skills.
