We’re a purpose-driven company where profits fund social impact. You’ll work on meaningful projects, solve real-world problems, and know your work supports something bigger. Learn more about our model for giving and social impact here.
Do you support hybrid work?
Yes. Most non-trading teams follow a hybrid model: three days in the office and two days remote, coordinated within each team.
Where are your offices located?
We have offices in Sydney (HQ), Brisbane, Melbourne, Amsterdam and Hong Kong, with trading activities spanning global markets. View our locations here.
Can I transfer between offices?
We’re open to it depending on your experience and team needs. We actively support internal mobility.
What’s the dress code?
Casual. Wear what makes you comfortable and helps you focus.
Diversity, Inclusion & Impact
How do you support diversity and inclusion?
We’re committed to building a workplace where everyone feels respected and valued. We support local and global initiatives through donations and impact loans, and sponsor societies that make STEM more inclusive.
How does donating work?
Each year, you’ll have access to around $20,000 to donate to causes you care about – split across two rounds in March and October. You can choose any registered not-for-profit.
What volunteering opportunities are there?
Our Social Impact team shares regular ways to get involved—from local volunteering to programs like The Observership Program and One Young World.
