Global interdealer broker for OTC financial and commodity markets
Tradition is a 1,000+ person interdealer brokerage serving 7,500 institutional clients across 30+ countries. The tech stack reflects a hybrid enterprise: Bloomberg, Refinitiv, and MarketAxess anchor trading workflows, while Azure, NetSuite, and ITIL-based tooling support back-office operations. Current hiring velocity is accelerating in finance and data roles—but the project backlog reveals internal operational friction: security tool deployments, ITSM platform rollouts, and counterparty risk model builds sit alongside unresolved pain points in data quality, compliance interpretation, and incident management.
