Are you interested in our Trading Operations Analyst Internship?
As a Trading Operations Analyst Intern, you will gain exposure to the full life cycle of Susquehanna’s trading activity and develop a strong foundational understanding of the industry and the dynamic environment in which we operate.
Trading Operations sits at the intersection of trading, technology, and external counterparties - providing you with the opportunity to build meaningful relationships and contribute to impactful projects that drive our success.
Throughout your internship, you’ll work closely with our core team and rotate across different trading desks such as Options, ETF, Treasury and Equity Finance, gaining hands-on experience. Each rotation is designed to deepen your knowledge and broaden your perspective on how our trading ecosystem functions.
If you have a keen interest in the financial markets, collaborating with traders while up-skilling technically then the Trading Operations internship could be for you.
What we're looking for
- Problem Solver: You enjoy solving puzzles and love when you discover a solution to difficult problems. You’re not afraid to discuss ideas and work with others to find the optimal solution.
- Communicator: You enjoy building relationships with those you work closely with. You enjoy sharing ideas, expressing your thoughts and listening to the views of others.
- Ambitious: You constantly set yourself goals in life and give your all to achieve them. Be it in Arts, Sports, Academics or another passion you have, you’re not afraid to put in the effort to reach your full potential.
- Numerical & Logical: When it comes to decision making, you use clear and sound reasoning. You’re rational and like to use numbers and data to come up with sensible solutions.
- Curious: You’re eager to find out more about what it’s like to work in the Finance sector, and specifically Trading Operations. Have a passion and identifiable interest in the financial markets and current affairs.
- Penultimate Year Student: Confirmed plan to graduate by December 2027 from an Australian or New Zealand University.
What’s in it for you
- Education: Susquehanna’s in-house education programme is widely recognised as being the best in the industry. You will attend regular sessions to learn about the business, our products, and the technology we use (Excel, SQL, Python etc.).
- Support: You will be assigned a mentor from our trading operations team for each of your rotations. You will also be assigned a buddy who was a previous OA to guide you along the way.
- Real Impact: You will work collaboratively with the technology team and traders on your desk to develop trade ideas and provide real-time opinions throughout the trading day. You will collaborate on daily tasks and improvements which are key to the ongoing success of the business.
- Culture: Our culture allows employees of every level to thrive. We are not your typical trading firm – the environment is casual, collaborative and we focus on continuous development, no matter how long you’ve been in Susquehanna.
- Perks: Highly competitive remuneration. Fully stocked kitchen - daily breakfast and lunch. Flights + Accommodation provided.
