Fixed Income Compliance Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The opportunity

We are seeking a Senior Manager, Fixed Income Trading to own and elevate Altruist's fixed income trading function. This is a high-visibility hybrid role-senior individual contributor and people leader-with direct exposure to Altruist's leadership team. You will manage a team of traders, own dealer and counterparty relationships, and serve as a strategic partner to Product and Engineering. A central priority will be deepening the integration between Altruist's fixed income platform and Moment-an AI-driven order management system-to unlock smarter execution, greater automation, and a more seamless advisor experience. Equally important will be positioning Altruist's fixed income offering to attract large enterprise RIA firms and compete at the highest level of the independent advisor market. The ideal candidate brings deep fixed income expertise and genuine openness to AI tools-like Claude and others-to work smarter and deliver better outcomes for advisors. You don't need to write code. You need the curiosity to ask what AI can do, and the judgment to put the answers to work.

  • Partner with Sales and Relationship Management to shape Altruist's fixed income value proposition for large enterprise RIA firms, serving as an SME in prospect conversations.
  • Identify capability gaps relative to enterprise expectations and advocate internally for the investments needed to compete at scale.
• Team Leadership & Development
  • Manage and mentor a team of fixed income traders, fostering a culture of excellence, accountability, and AI-assisted ways of working.
  • Set clear performance standards, coach regularly, and build development plans that retain top talent.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Compliance, and Finance to align trading initiatives with Altruist's broader objectives.
• Dealer & Counterparty Relationships
  • Own strategic relationships with broker-dealers, primary dealers, and liquidity providers to optimize pricing, access, and market intelligence.
  • Negotiate favorable terms and new issue allocations ensuring institutional-quality access for Altruist advisors.
  • Represent Altruist at industry events, dealer meetings, and counterparty reviews to elevate the firm's market profile.
• Advisor & Client Service
  • Deliver best-in-class service to Altruist's advisor network-responsive execution support, pricing transparency, and proactive market insights.
  • Use AI tools to enhance the speed and quality of advisor-facing communication and fixed income portfolio guidance.
