Clear Markets is an American company which was founded in 2012 for the purpose of building and operating regulated electronic trading platforms for fiat interest rate and currency swaps.  Today the company has licenses for swap execution platforms in the United States, Europe and Japan.  The company is in the process of adding cryptocurrency swaps and options to our regulated trading platforms.

To help facilitate this growth, we are looking for a Crypto Derivatives Sales Executive to join our Asia team, based in Tokyo.  The Sales Executive role is responsible for selling Clear Markets services into a range of medium to large institutions.

The successful candidate will be a seasoned self-starter, bringing with them a new client acquisition best practice, strong face-to-face skills and hunting talent.  Knowledge of cryptocurrency derivatives or finance is helpful, but not a requirement for this role.

We are looking for people who:
