About Peel Hunt’s Trader Programme
Peel Hunt are hiring a Trainee Trader to join our Execution Services Department - a rare opportunity for ambitious, highly numerate school leavers to begin their career on a live trading floor. The programme will run for 24 months, with the aim of offering a permanent placement upon successful completion.
At Peel Hunt, they combine a collegiate, supportive culture with a commitment to developing top talent and focusing on long term success. As a Trading Trainee, you’ll learn directly from experienced market makers and gain hands on exposure to pricing UK equity markets, managing trading risk, providing liquidity across multiple instruments, and supporting real client execution.
This role may transition into an Apprenticeship once the formal qualification programme is confirmed.
