About the role

About ETC Exchange Traded Concepts (ETC) is a leading white-label ETF platform and trading sub-adviser, partnering with asset managers, index providers, and financial institutions to launch and manage ETFs. We combine deep capital markets expertise with proprietary technology-driven trading infrastructure to deliver best-in-class execution for our clients' funds.
The Role: ETC is looking for a Portfolio Manager to join our trading and portfolio management team. This is a hands-on role for someone who lives at the intersection of markets and code — comfortable managing live risk on a trading desk and building the tools that make that trading smarter, faster, and more scalable. You'll manage day-to-day portfolio construction, rebalancing, and trade execution as part of a team covering a diverse book of client ETFs, while also contributing to the automation and systems that run our trading operation.
What You'll Do:
  • As part of the Portfolio Management Team, manage portfolio construction, creation/redemption activity, and daily rebalancing for a range of client ETF mandates
  • Execute and oversee trading, managing risk, tracking error, and liquidity considerations in real time
  • Build and maintain internal tools, scripts, and models (Python and/or similar) to automate portfolio and trading workflows, reporting, and analytics
  • Partner with index providers, authorized participants, and clients to ensure funds track their benchmarks efficiently
  • Monitor market conditions and proactively identify trading and operational risks
  • Collaborate with Operations, Compliance, Legal, and Technology teams to enhance trading systems and controls
  • Support new fund launches, including trading setup, testing, and go-live coordination What You Bring
  • 5+ years of experience as a portfolio manager, trader, or similar role managing ETFs, index funds, or systematic strategies
  • Proven trading experience across equities and/or fixed income, with a solid understanding of ETF creation/redemption mechanics and market microstructure
  • Coding proficiency (Python strongly preferred) with experience building trading tools, automation, or data analysis pipelines
  • Strong quantitative and analytical skills, with comfort working across portfolio management systems and order management platforms
  • Series 7/63 or ability to obtain; FINRA licensing background a plus
  • A self-starter mindset — thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment supporting multiple clients and strategies simultaneously
Salary Range: $150,000-$225,000
Benefits: Full Health and Dental insurance paid 401k Why ETC Join a nimble, growing platform at the center of the ETF industry's expansion, where your trading instincts and technical skills directly shape how funds are built, run, and scaled — with real ownership over both the markets and the systems behind them.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
