About the role

FalconX is seeking a Personal Account Dealing Senior Compliance Associate to join our team and help to manage the program governing employee trading and conflicts of interest across the firm. In this role, you will review and adjudicate personal trading pre-clearance requests, monitor employee holdings and transactions for policy breaches, and administer the systems that make this program run. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, Law, Data Science, or a related field
  • Analytical Mindset: Exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to reconstruct what an employee actually traded from incomplete records, spot the account that was never disclosed, and distinguish a genuine oversight from a deliberate circumvention
  • Communication: Crisp verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to document decisions clearly, explain a denial in terms an employee understands, and articulate personal trading expectations to non-compliance stakeholders across the firm
  • Digital Asset Interest: Genuine interest in digital asset markets and the practical mechanics of self-custody, on-chain activity, staking, and airdrops — enough to reason about how a policy written for equities should apply to a wallet
