Compensation and Benefits

About the Role

In this Philadelphia, PA role, you will be accountable for electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability while supporting Eastern Time research review before the open and throughout the U.S. cash session. The work requires direct communication, explicit limits, and records that remain useful after market conditions change.

Philadelphia Operating Focus

The Philadelphia opening emphasizes evidence-first decisions, documented challenge, and orderly production handoffs. The workday reserves focused time before the open for independent evidence review and challenge. During live markets, the role must distinguish a normal deviation from a condition that needs escalation. At the close, open questions move into a short written queue with a named owner and a required follow-up date. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Eastern Time research review before the open and throughout the U.S. cash session.
