Why Nasdaq
When you work at Nasdaq, you’re working for more open and transparent markets so that more people can access opportunities. Connections can be made, jobs can be created, and communities thrive. We want all our employees to have access to opportunities, too. That means planning for career growth, ensuring you have the tools you need, and promoting an inclusive culture where we’re all valued for our unique perspectives.
Here, you will work for a global tech leader committed to breaking down barriers to inclusive prosperity. We see technology as a means to free people up to work together more productively and effectively by centralizing data, analytics, and market intelligence.
Here, we’re committed to building a more diverse and inclusive workforce. It is our responsibility to do better, but we also need representative voices to power the fresh thinking that is vital for our business and our clients.
Who We Are - Exchange Brokers
OMX started in 1985 when our desk was the center of business. Today we’re a team of four people and serve as a crucial hub in the sophisticated Nordic equity derivatives ecosystem. We operate the manual exchange trading system for equity derivatives by sourcing liquidity, facilitating price discovery, and negotiating trades for our members.
