Marex Solutions is one of Marex’s four segments. At Marex Solutions, we are not your typical derivatives people. Our team is home to talented people drawn from a wide range of banking and trading backgrounds. But they share a common vision and a drive to deliver outstanding, innovative solutions to our clients; solutions that push beyond expectations and exceed the goals and ambitions that our clients have set us.

We welcome creative and innovative thinkers, people with independent minds, wisdom and experience. People who see what can be, not just what is.

But we look for more than just smart ideas. Our work is challenging and our goal is revolutionary. We need people with a can-do attitude. People who will be hands on and get things done. People with the confidence to challenge the way the investment banks think about the principles, processes, and opportunities of the derivatives sector, and then do things differently.

And we also foster empathy. Our people intuitively understand the needs and goals of our clients and colleagues and work tirelessly to surpass them. Our people work every day to build a different, better world for everyone.

If you share our drive, our principled determination to make a difference, our creativity and our focus then you’ll fit right in at Marex Solutions.
