About The Role
We are looking for a Head of Brokerage in Saudi Arabia. This individual will build and manage the company's brokerage capabilities in the region and will be registered with the Capital Market Authority (CMA) as a senior executive of the company KSA.

Brokerage

• Design and lead the company's core brokerage function in KSA, from client onboarding to order execution and settlement.
• Set up dealing and order-handling processes that meet CMA conduct-of-business and best-execution requirements.
• Own day-to-day brokerage operations and resolve problematic developments and situations quickly.
• Work with compliance on trade surveillance, market-conduct controls, and client protection.

Market and Regulators

• Manage the company's relationship with the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) and support the relationship with the CMA alongside compliance.
• Collect and act on insights about innovative brokerage solutions that can be introduced to the Saudi market.
