Proprietary Trader – Global Prediction Markets
Central, Hong Kong, Hong Kong - Full Time
Position Overview
We are a hedge fund building a new trading desk focused on global prediction and event-driven markets, spanning politics, macro, geopolitics, and sports. This role focuses on probability-based markets (e.g. prediction exchanges, betting markets), where edge comes from interpreting real-world outcomes and fast-moving information.
We are looking for traders from betting, sportsbook, or prediction market backgrounds with a proven ability to generate PnL independently (not client flow-driven). This is a rare build-from-scratch opportunity. You will bring your own edge, deploy capital, and help shape a new trading strategy within a hedge fund environment.
Key Responsibilities- Trade global prediction markets across political, macro, geopolitical, and sports events
- Generate PnL through your own strategies (alpha-driven)
- Identify mispricings and arbitrage opportunities across platforms
- Price and trade probability-based contracts (binary / multi-outcome)
- Manage risk, exposure, and capital allocation
- Monitor news, sentiment, and market movements in real time
- Help build the desk’s trading framework, tools, and processes
- 3+ years experience in betting, sportsbook trading, or prediction markets
- Proven ability to consistently make money from trading
- Strong understanding of odds / probability pricing
- Comfortable in fast-moving, news-driven environments
- Disciplined risk management
- Independent, high-conviction decision maker
- Coding (Python/SQL) is a plus
- Motivated to build and scale a new trading desk
- Flexibility to align with global event calendars
