Are you currently trading your own book, and looking to take the next step in your careerworking across over 30 Emerging markets?

By joining Citi's Emerging Markets trading desk for Equities, you will be responsible for overseeing a trading book and managing the associated risk, with the objective of delivering on budgeted revenues, and developing the trading franchise further. Specifically, you will manage the execution trading across the Middle East, Central Europe, and Africa.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an individual who already has experience of trading Emerging Markets Equities but wants to broaden their exposure by taking advantage of the breadth of coverage an institution like Citi can provide.
