Compensation and Benefits

About the Role

In this Los Angeles, CA role, you will be accountable for electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability while supporting Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff. The work requires direct communication, explicit limits, and records that remain useful after market conditions change.

Los Angeles Operating Focus

The Los Angeles opening emphasizes clean transfers from East Coast decisions into late-session and post-close analysis. The schedule gives this opening direct ownership of the closing auction, late-session liquidity changes, and earnings or corporate events released after the U.S. close. Morning overlap with Eastern Time is reserved for decisions that need live discussion. Later work must leave a complete record for the next pre-market review. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff.

First Review Cycle

The initial Los Angeles, CA review combines Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff with a controlled examination of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions. Each material observation needs a source, a time, and a defined owner. One required check is: Develop broker and algorithm scorecards. The next required check is: Coordinate incident response with engineering and risk. The Los Angeles opening emphasizes clean transfers from East Coast decisions into late-session and post-close analysis. You will identify any assumption that remains untested after both checks. The closing record identifies the evidence, approval, limit, and next test. A second specialist must be able to evaluate electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability from the same starting facts.
