Position Requirements - Proven experience and extensive knowledge of the FIX protocol from both technical and business perspectives. This requirement is very important: you must be very familiar with the FIX protocol messages and fields (e.g. multi-leg orders) and how they are used in real-world trading environments for different asset classes and workflows (pre-trade, trade, post-trade). - A good understanding of capital markets, how stock exchanges work, and of trading terminology (orders, executions, allocations, settlement, OMS, EMS, etc.). - Ability to understand complex trading architectures that may involve multiple systems and multiple protocols, like those used in large financial organizations. - Excellent business English, both spoken and written. Esprow works with high-profile clients and we are known for our accuracy, thoroughness, and attention to details. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills to clearly explain complicated procedures in a simple and understandable manner, provide clear and concise information to clients during product demonstrations, webinars, when engaging with them at conferences, when carrying out analysis of their business needs, or when communicating with internal stakeholders. - Strong client facing presentation skills. - Exceptional attention to details, whether in emails, documents, or verbal communication. - Ability to meet tight deadlines and adapt to changing priorities. Position Responsibilities - Deliver product demonstrations, product webinars, and technical thought leadership whether at events or through media (e.g. blogs, articles, etc.). - Provide the sales team with recommendations on what solutions are available to solve clients’ challenges and facilitate the sales process. - Address clients’ requests for how to best apply Esprow’s solutions to their business needs, engage with internal teams to explore the options and solutions available, and follow up with clients to guarantee their satisfaction. - Forward in detail clients’ feedback, feature requests, and use-cases to product teams. - Design the structure of all technical communications with existing and prospect clients, i.e. product demonstrations, product webinars, product evaluations, and so forth. - Maintain all systems used during product demonstrations, both client and server applications, to make sure that they are always ready for product demonstrations. - Collaborate with other departments to maintain the same high level of technical clarity and communication across different media, e.g. product guides, user manuals, product brochures, technical marketing, company website, and so on. Ideal Personality - A mature person who can be trusted and who genuinely cares about their job and responsibilities. - A positive personality and attitude, able to derive satisfaction from their job. - An analytical mind and an inquisitive nature. - Self-starter: motivated and able to take the initiative. - Someone who can bring external knowledge to the team and continually seeks to improve themselves. - Strong planning and organizational skills to keep on top of multiple projects. - Able to work independently, proactively, and under pressure against multiple deadlines. - A team player keen to join a small team and that understands that we succeed or fail together.
