Original job description

Purpose Unlimited is an independent financial services company with an unrelenting focus on customer-centric innovation, delivered through technology-driven solutions. Led by entrepreneur Som Seif, the company is developing a diversified product platform aimed at addressing historically underserved segments of the market. Purpose Unlimited’s businesses include Purpose Investments, Advisor Solutions by Purpose, and Driven.

Who is Purpose Investments?

Purpose Investments is an innovation- driven asset management company with over $20 billion under management, offering both managed and quantitative investment products. Much of what is available to the average Canadian investor today is outdated and expensive. Purpose Investments’ goal is to constantly innovate, and make investing simple, intuitive and affordable for everyone.

Vacancy Status: This is for a current opening.

Job Description

The role

The Senior Trader is a well experienced execution professional, responsible for trading across the full asset class spectrum - exchange-traded securities, OTC instruments, FX, digital assets, and physical commodities. This is a hands-on execution role with a broader mandate: the Senior Trader helps set the standard for how the desk operates, contributes to workflow improvement, and plays an active part in how the trading function evolves as the platform grows.

The right candidate is automation-enabled - comfortable using AI tools to sharpen analysis, streamline routine processes, and focus human attention where judgment matters most. This is not a technology build role; it is an execution role for someone who uses modern tools intelligently.

For the right person, this role offers a clear path toward taking on broader responsibility across the trading function as the desk and platform continue to scale.

The Team

The trading desk operates as a single unit. Traders work in close collaboration - covering the full trading mandate together, sharing knowledge, and ensuring seamless continuity across all markets and instruments. While each trader brings distinct expertise to the desk, the expectation is full mutual coverage: there are no hard boundaries in a live market.

The Senior Trader contributes to the quality and consistency of execution across the team and helps to develop the collective capability of the trading function over time.

Responsibilities: What you will do/ What you will own

Trading Execution

Execute trades across equities, ETFs, derivatives, FX, digital assets, and physical commodities
Own the FX hedging program - design, execution, ongoing monitoring, and reconciliation across all applicable fund mandates
Trade and settle digital assets and physical bullion across supported fund structures
Provide full coverage across all trading functions - the desk operates as one
Monitor intraday market conditions and manage execution quality across all instruments
Approve and manage daily market maker basket files as required

Analysis & Position Management

Model and monitor FX hedging positions and derivatives exposure - understand the risk, not just the trade
Use AI tools to maintain execution analytics, track hedge performance, and surface position-level insights
Monitor daily cash balances and fund liquidity across applicable mandates
Maintain Bloomberg AIM data integrity - positions, security setup, and book of record hygiene - in coordination with the trade operations team

Workflow & Desk Development

Identify and drive workflow improvements - use AI tools and available platforms to reduce manual effort and

improve desk processes

Contribute to the development of the broader trading team - share expertise, provide guidance, and help raise the quality of execution across the function
Collaborate with technology and engineering on desk automation initiatives
Document and standardise trading workflows as automation is deployed

Compliance & Risk

Ensure all trading activity complies with fund mandates, regulatory requirements, and internal policies
Escalate material exceptions promptly with full context and a clear recommendation
Maintain accurate audit trails across all executed transactions

Qualifications: What you will bring

Experience

5+ years of experience in a trading or capital markets execution role at a buy-side or sell-side institution
Demonstrated experience managing and executing an FX hedging program across multiple fund mandates
Hands-on experience trading and settling digital assets in a regulated or institutional environment
Proven multi-asset execution across equities, ETFs, derivatives, and FX

Technical & Analytical

Proficiency with Bloomberg (EMSX, AIM, or equivalent OMS/EMS)
Quantitative fluency - able to independently model, monitor, and communicate FX and derivatives positions
Comfortable using AI tools such as Claude or Microsoft Copilot to automate analysis, surface exceptions, and improve how the desk operates - without needing to build the tools yourself
Strong understanding of the full trade lifecycle from execution through settlement

Competencies

Precision and urgency in a live market environment - accurate under pressure, every time
Takes ownership - closes issues independently and escalates with context, not just flags
Natural collaborator - works openly with the team, shares knowledge, and contributes to a high-trust environment
Proactive communicator - updates, flags, and surfaces issues without being prompted
Improvement mindset - looks for better ways to do things and acts on them

Preferred Qualifications

Familiarity with OTC derivatives - swaps, structured products, or off-exchange instruments
Exposure to ETF market structure and authorised participant relationships
Experience leading or mentoring on a trading desk
Canadian securities licensing (CSC, CFA, or equivalent) is an asset
