Index Options Trader

G-20 Group

Index Options Trader

G-20 Group is a cross-asset trading firm headquartered in Switzerland, trading delta-one and derivatives markets globally. We combine startup agility with institutional-grade experience in proprietary trading, technology, and quantitative finance.

As an Index Options Trader at G-20, you will be responsible for managing and optimizing a discretionary index options portfolio. You will collaborate with a team of traders, quantitative researchers, and developers to enhance pricing models, refine trading strategies, and drive superior risk-adjusted returns. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to G-20's continued expansion within a fast-paced and dynamic trading environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop, implement, and refine index options trading strategies across major benchmark indices (e.g. S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Russell 2000, or relevant regional indices).
  • Analyze market microstructure, order flow, and volatility dynamics (including skew, term structure, and implied vs. realized volatility) to identify and capitalize on trading opportunities.
  • Collaborate with quantitative analysts and developers to improve options pricing models, hedging algorithms, and execution tools.
  • Maintain strong awareness of macroeconomic events, central bank policy, and geopolitical developments that influence index levels and volatility markets.
  • Execute trades with precision across listed index options and related futures, ensuring best execution and liquidity management.
  • Manage portfolio Greeks (delta, gamma, vega, theta) and adjust hedges dynamically in response to changing market conditions, including around key macro events and expiries.
  • Contribute to the continuous enhancement of G-20's trading infrastructure, data pipelines, and analytical frameworks.
  • Monitor portfolio performance and risk metrics, providing regular feedback on strategy effectiveness and market impact.
