Foreign Exchange and International Payments
Clear Capital Exchange | Full-Time | London | Office Based
Entry level | £25,000 basic salary plus uncapped commission
About Clear Capital Exchange
Clear Capital Exchange is a London based foreign exchange and international payments brokerage. We work with UK businesses and private clients to manage currency exposure and settle cross border payments, using spot, forward contracts, market orders and hedging strategies.
Clients are supported by a named consultant rather than a general service desk. Pricing, market commentary and execution are handled directly by the person who manages the relationship.
Clear Capital Exchange sits within a wider group. Consultants gain exposure to the full group product suite, which spans banking, finance, digital assets and e-money. This is not part of the day to day role, but it provides useful commercial breadth as consultants develop.
The Role
We are recruiting a Junior FX Sales Consultant to join the Exchange team. This is an entry level new business sales position and a route into the foreign exchange industry.
UK businesses that pay overseas suppliers, receive revenue in foreign currency or import goods carry currency exposure, and many manage that exposure through their existing bank. The role involves identifying those businesses, qualifying the opportunity and introducing Clear Capital Exchange as an alternative.
The role begins with outbound activity: building a pipeline, booking meetings and attending client calls alongside senior consultants. Responsibility increases with competence, progressing to running the full sales cycle and managing a book of accounts.
Prior experience in foreign exchange or financial services is not required. Training is provided from first principles. We recruit on attitude, work rate and coachability.
The role reports to a Senior FX Consultant within the Exchange team.
Key Responsibilities
- Generate new business through outbound calling to decision makers at UK businesses, typically owners, finance directors and finance managers.
- Research target companies and identify those with material currency exposure.
- Qualify opportunities against currency pairs, volumes, payment frequency, incumbent provider and current cost.
- Book and prepare meetings for senior consultants, progressing to leading meetings independently.
- Develop working knowledge of the product set, including spot, forward contracts, market orders and hedging, and explain it clearly to non-specialists.
- Monitor currency market movements and understand the drivers behind them.
- Maintain accurate records of activity, notes and next steps in HubSpot.
- Meet daily and weekly activity targets and monthly revenue targets.
- Support client onboarding and ongoing account management to drive repeat trading.
What We Are Looking For
This is an entry level position. Candidates are assessed against the following attributes rather than prior industry experience.
- Hungry and ambitious. Wants to build a career, earn well and progress.
- Initiative. Takes ownership, finds opportunities and does not need chasing.
- Coachable. Willing to learn, listen and improve quickly.
