Do you have a burning question for your boss that you’re too afraid to ask? Join this panel and submit your questions anonymously, either before the event in a survey that will be emailed to you, or during the session using our online platform, Slido.

Two of our Rising Star speakers from TradeTech 2024 will be joining us again to quiz heads of trading on how they are nurturing and keeping talent on their desk.

In addition to questions submitted by the audience, the rising star moderators will also pose ‘rapid-fire’ hiring dilemmas- how will the heads of desk respond?

• What’s the secret to maintaining a high-performance desk under increasing cost pressures and volatile market conditions?
• What’s your most successful and effective training method/ idea?
• What advice would you give your younger self starting out on the trading desk?
• Has your firm reversed hybrid working, if so, what have been the implications on retention of staff?
• In your opinion, should traders be single asset specialists or multi-asset generalists?
• During the hiring process, if you had to pick one critical skill, what would it be?
