Junior Events Trader | CME Event Markets | Ground Floor Opportunity
The Opportunity
A successful US-based market making firm is launching a pioneering desk focused on event markets trading via CME—one of only a handful of firms with access to 7-day Event Markets (similar to Kalshi and Polymarket, but through regulated exchanges).
They\’re building a team of 5 junior traders to establish a first-mover advantage in this emerging space.
Why This Role Is Different
This isn\’t your standard trading position. You\’re joining at the absolute ground floor of what could become a significant new market, or you\’re part of an experiment that doesn\’t pan out. Either way, you\’ll know within 12 months.
If you\’re someone who:
Gets energized by prediction markets and event-driven trading
Wants equity-like upside without waiting years to prove yourself
Prefers being a pioneer over joining an established desk
Can handle uncertainty in exchange for asymmetric opportunity
…this could be the role you\’ve been looking for.
Compensation
Year 1: $60-120K USD guaranteed base
Year 2+: If the desk succeeds, expect multiples of your base as the market scales
What We\’re Looking For
Interest in event markets, prediction markets, or unique trading opportunities
Willingness to take calculated career risk for outsized reward
Work authorization in one of the listed locations
Analytical mindset and quick learner mentality
