Business Development Manager - Market Maker & Order Flow Partnerships

What You'll Do:

• Build and own the pipeline of prospective program participants — HNIs, family offices, prop trading desks, small hedge funds, and quant teams — in India and among NRIs in hubs such as Dubai, Singapore, and London
• Pitch the program to a sophisticated, quantitatively-minded audience and take prospects from first conversation to signed agreement
• Work with the trading desk to structure commercial terms for each participant, and with legal/compliance on agreements
• Coordinate onboarding with our engineering and trade-ops teams
• Manage ongoing relationships: monitor participant activity, fill quality, and satisfaction; identify expansion opportunities; handle escalations
• Represent us at trading and crypto industry events, conferences, and community forums to build the program's brand
• Feed market intelligence back to product and trading leadership — what participants want, what competitors offer, where the program should evolve

What We're Looking For:

• 4–8 years in institutional sales, business development, or client coverage in trading or financial markets — e.g., exchange/broker institutional desks, OTC desks, prime services, market maker partnerships, PMS/AIF distribution, or wealth management covering trading-oriented clients
• An existing, demonstrable network among HNIs, family offices, prop traders, or fund managers in India and/or NRI hubs
• Solid understanding of derivatives, market microstructure, and market making economics — you can hold your own in conversations about spreads, fill rates, adverse selection, and risk transfer
• Comfort with quantitative commercial discussions and structuring bespoke deals
• Crypto/digital assets market familiarity is a strong plus; genuine curiosity about it is a must
• Self-starter comfortable operating with high autonomy in a fast-moving environment; willing to travel for client meetings and events

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in finance, economics, engineering, or a quantitative field; MBA or CFA a plus
• NISM/relevant capital-markets certifications a plus
• Fluency in English; additional Indian languages an advantage for regional HNI coverage.

The Opportunity:

• Own and scale a live, revenue-generating program from an established base — not a cold start
• Direct visibility of your impact: participant count, flow allocated, and program P&L are all measurable
• Work directly with trading and engineering leadership at one of India's leading crypto derivatives platforms
• Competitive fixed compensation with a meaningful variable/commission component tied to program growth
• Exposure to the intersection of exchange operations, market making, and institutional distribution — a rare vantage point in Indian markets.
