Our specialty is within capital markets with a focus on: high reliability, large volumes, low latency and a world-class, cloud-based experience for retail, institutional and white-label clients.

Part of SXO’s core focus is also being sharp on client needs before we build new features or launch new projects across the Bank - by building prototypes, testing, understanding the money-making logic behind the offering and the go-to-market strategy before we build a new solution.

We aspire to be a non-hierarchical, purpose-driven organisation. At Saxo, it is not about entitlement; it is about impact - no matter where you sit in the organisation. A good idea is always taken seriously and you can truly make a difference.

When you work here, you become a Saxonian. Obviously you will get an attractive compensation package. But we also invest in your personal development and offer you large responsibility from day one. We encourage an open feedback culture and a supportive team environment. If you show a collaborative spirit, drive and passion, your learning curve will be steep and your (international) career opportunities with Saxo immense.

At Saxo we don’t just offer a job - we offer an opportunity to invest in your future
