• Develop and delivering analytics and hypothetical strategy comparisons (e.g., payoff profiles, scenario analysis, stress tests, key option sensitivities/greeks) tied to both the options position and the underlying equity position
• Communicate complex concepts (structure mechanics, risks, outcomes, assumptions, and limitations) in Advisor- and client-ready language—both verbally and in writing
• Provide leadership-level support for pricing, execution guidance, trade structuring, and ongoing lifecycle management (rolls, expirations, assignment/exercise considerations) for U.S. equity options

• Contribute to platform growth through thought leadership, best practices, and internal enablement (playbooks, training, templates) to improve Advisor fluency in concentrated equity risk management solutions

• Prepare high-quality analysis and client/advisor materials (e.g., pitch content, one-pagers, talking points) and helping enhance workflows through effective use of approved tooling (e.g., Excel/PowerPoint and AI-enabled processes where permitted)

• Ability to partner with internal strategists and cross desk partners to effectively collaborate and launch campaigns for proactive client engagement

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills:

• Minimum of 10+ years of prior experience in equity options (trading, structuring, or advisor-facing coverage); equity trading experience

• Demonstrated ability to apply options strategies to concentrated equity / covered equity use cases (e.g., collars, covered calls, protective puts/spreads) and explain outcomes under different market scenarios
• Familiarity with broader tools to manage concentrated equity positions such as exchange funds, options/collared overlay strategies
• Strong analytical skills with experience in options modeling, greeks/risk concepts, scenario analysis, and translating analysis into actionable, compliant portfolio considerations
• Strong communication skills (both verbal and written), with the ability to articulate complex derivative concepts clearly to non-specialists and to senior stakeholders
• Strong work ethic, professionalism, and ability to manage multiple priorities under pressure with high attention to detail
• Self-motivation and demonstration of initiative; proven ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, highly controlled environment
