Why work for us?
A unique, ‘one team’-driven culture: Flow Traders fosters an entrepreneurial, innovative and strong collaborative culture, which rewards people for their contributions to the company as a whole rather than only in their direct area of responsibility. Our culture is underpinned by the four-eyes principle and by disciplined risk awareness at every level of the organization.
We nurture our unique ‘one team’ philosophy by stimulating the sharing of ideas and best practices through employee rotation both within and between our offices. The seamless integration of teamwork, ETP market expertise, risk management, technology and connectivity enables us to offer competitive pricing, while always remaining in control.
Employee Benefits
Flow Traders offers hands-on training in Amsterdam (housing and flights provided) and a steep learning curve within the most dynamic of environments, providing you exposure to a broad market scope of different asset classes and instruments. Apart from a competitive salary, we provide free breakfast and lunch, organize company trips, support your gym membership and offer a discounted health insurance scheme. On top of that, we reserve a large percentage of our business results in our bonus pool and provide performance-based rewards from Day 1.
Programs

As a Graduate Trader, you will begin your career at Flow with an extensive 4-month training program at our Netherlands office. During this program, you will learn everything you need to know about our core business, the financial products we trade and the intricacies surrounding our trading processes, including pricing strategies and our proprietary trading systems. It will also include participation in trading simulations and quantitative classes hosted by our Senior Traders and Quantitative Researchers that will further strengthen your understanding of a Trader’s role in the financial ecosystem. After collaborating with your fellow graduate traders on a team project to conclude the training program, you will be assigned to an established trading desk based on your skills and interests. Gradually, you will take on more responsibilities, start monitoring markets and be able to make split-second decisions to contribute to the overall profitability of your desk!
