About G-20

G-20 Group is a cross-asset trading firm headquartered in Switzerland, trading delta-one and derivatives markets globally. We combine startup agility with institutional-grade experience in proprietary trading, technology, and quantitative finance.

Role Overview

As an Equity Options Trader at G-20, you will be responsible for managing and optimizing a discretionary equity options portfolio. You will collaborate with a team of traders, quantitative researchers, and developers to enhance pricing models, refine trading strategies, and drive superior risk-adjusted returns. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to G-20's continued expansion within a fast-paced and dynamic trading environment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop, implement, and refine equity options trading strategies with a focus on small-cap equities. 
  • Analyze market microstructure, order flow, and volatility dynamics (including skew, term structure, and implied vs. realized volatility) to identify and capitalize on trading opportunities. 
  • Collaborate with quantitative analysts and developers to improve options pricing models, hedging algorithms, and execution tools. 
  • Maintain strong awareness of corporate actions, earnings events, and sector-specific catalysts that influence equity and options markets. 
  • Execute trades with precision across listed equity options, ensuring best execution and liquidity management. 
  • Manage portfolio Greeks (delta, gamma, vega, theta) and adjust hedges dynamically in response to changing market conditions. 
  • Contribute to the continuous enhancement of G-20's trading infrastructure, data pipelines, and analytical frameworks. 
  • Monitor portfolio performance and risk metrics, providing regular feedback on strategy effectiveness and market impact. 
  • Degree in Finance, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field from a top-tier university. 
  • Strong background in options trading with a solid understanding of options pricing theory, volatility trading, and relevant strategies. Experience in high volatility asset classes and leveraged trading is essential. 
  • Proven track record of generating consistent profits (PnL >$2m annually for more than 3 years). 
  • Experience with quantitative trading and the ability to apply data analysis to trading decisions. 
  • Exceptional analytical and problem-solving abilities, capable of making quick, data-driven decisions. 
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams. 
  • Demonstration of a results-driven, proactive, and self-motivated approach. 
Preferred / Desirable Experience
  • Experience in a proprietary trading, market-making, or hedge fund environment. 
  • Familiarity with automation and algorithmic execution strategies for options. 
  • Proficiency with trading and analytical tools (e.g. Python, Excel/VBA, SQL). 
Right to work: This role can be based out of our Zurich, London, New York or Hong Kong office. Only candidates who possess the pre-existing right to work in one of the locations above without company sponsorship need apply.
