We make it easy to love working here

There are countless reasons the Optiver team loves coming to work. But, perhaps, none is greater than the culture of excellence that permeates every level of the firm.

The work is intense. The culture is inspiring.

At Optiver, we approach our work with intensity. But we do so in an atmosphere that’s informal and collaborative. And we are constantly inspired by one another, with a keen understanding that excellence is a team sport. This is evident in our:

Senior staff’s commitment to mentorship and guidance as you progress in your career
Ethos of internal collaboration and external competition—when the firm does well, we all do well
Organization-wide commitment to excellence and non-stop improvement
Facilitation of global transfer opportunities between offices

We take great care of our greatest asset.

At Optiver, our people are our single most valuable asset, so we reward them accordingly. It begins with an extremely competitive compensation package, and extends well beyond that, including:

A transparent bonus structure
Top tier benefits
Generous vacation time
Health and wellness programs

A company of people who truly enjoy each other’s company.

During the heat of the workday, the Optiver team is in near constant communication, through which friendships and bonds inevitably form. Outside of the workday, we have abundant opportunities to deepen those bonds in more relaxed social settings, like:

Regular, company-wide social events, including Friday happy hours
An annual, company-wide retreat
Company-sponsored volunteer events

Perks that make it easier to focus on the work.

We expect our staff to perform at a high level at all times. Which is why we’ve created a work environment with amenities to fuel it:

Delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner
In-house baristas
A game room stocked with beverages

Rigorous training

Whether you’re hired as a trader, software engineer or researcher, your career at Optiver will begin the same way: with a period of intensive trader training. In addition, our tech hires participate in a short bootcamp on engineering and design principles behind our proprietary systems. The goal is for every new hire to receive the best possible training so they’re able to hit the ground running—or the floor trading—as soon as possible.

Continuous learning opportunities

Of course, your education at Optiver won’t end with your training. Far from it. Between formal mentoring and feedback, the informal peer-to-peer learning that’s a natural byproduct of our highly collaborative culture and outside professional development opportunities, your hunger for knowledge will never go unsatisfied.
