Head of BD & Partnerships - US (New York / Chicago)

About GoCharting
GoCharting is a web-native charting and trading workflow platform with institutional-grade orderflow and DOM tools — footprint/cluster charts, volume/market profile, cumulative delta, imbalance charts, DOM trading. We are the only platform that delivers these capabilities fully on the web. Differentiated as the leader in the professional orderflow niche. PE-acquired and funded in 2025, profitable, 2.1M+ registered traders globally, with a mandate to scale 10x over 4 years. US rebrand underway. US equities and US options data are being added, broadening scope beyond futures into multi-asset coverage.

The Role

This is the most important commercial hire GoCharting will make. The US professional futures and options trader is exactly who GoCharting is built for — and we are the only web-native platform that delivers the institutional-grade orderflow, DOM, and footprint tools they currently get from desktop software like Sierra Chart, Bookmap, and ATAS. The product case makes itself. What it needs is someone to put it in front of every broker, prop firm, and exchange that touches that audience. Three broker integrations live; the prop trading firm market (Apex, TopStep, Earn2Trade, My Funded Futures and dozens of others) is entirely untapped; exchange relationships are nascent; the educator/community/media ecosystem has barely been touched. You will own all of it — you ARE the US commercial function. A US agency provides interim BD/community coverage for ~6 months; you will absorb and replace it. You report directly to the COO with full autonomy over US commercial strategy.

What you'll do

Broker Partnerships

• Expand the US broker integration roster beyond the current — target AMP Futures, Dorman Trading, Phillip Capital, Wedbush Futures, EdgeClear, and others in US futures/options
• Own the full partnership cycle: outreach, pitch, terms, technical handoff, go-live, ongoing relationship
• Develop co-marketing with existing and new broker partners — every integration should be a growth event, not just a technical connection

Prop Trading Firm Partnerships

• Build the prop firm vertical from scratch — target Apex Trader Funding, TopStep, Earn2Trade, My Funded Futures, comparable firms
• Structure deals appropriate to each: white-label, platform integration, co-marketing, endorsed-tool status, or combinations
• Own the commercial and relationship side; work with product/engineering on integration requirements

Exchange & Ecosystem Partnerships

• Build exchange relationships beyond CME: CBOE, ICE, CBOT, others relevant to US futures/options
• Develop co-marketing and visibility partnerships with US futures/options financial media, trading educators, communities — futures.io, TastyTrade ecosystem, comparable channels
• Own GoCharting's presence at US industry events: trading expos, broker-hosted events

Pipeline & Market Development

• Own and maintain the US CRM pipeline — every conversation logged, every follow-up tracked
• Deliver regular US partnership reports to the COO: active deals, stage, expected close, blockers
• Provide market intelligence: competitor moves, new broker entrants, ecosystem whitespace

What we're looking for

Must-haves:

• 7+ years in BD, partnerships, or sales in the US futures/options trading ecosystem — fintech, trading platform, futures broker, FCM, or financial-data company. General SaaS BD does not substitute.
• Existing network in the US futures or options ecosystem — brokers, prop firms, or exchanges — can open doors on day one
• Track record closing broker integrations, platform partnerships, or financial-data distribution deals with measurable outcomes
• Deep knowledge of US futures and options market structure and the professional trader landscape
• Exceptional relationship builder: US B2B, multi-stakeholder, long sales cycles with compliance and technical teams
• US work authorisation; based in the United States

Nice-to-haves:

• Existing relationships at US futures brokers: NinjaTrader Brokerage, AMP Futures, Dorman Trading, Phillip Capital, comparable
• Prop trading firm network: Apex Trader Funding, TopStep, Earn2Trade, FTMO US, comparable
• Experience with platform integration ecosystems: Rithmic, CQG, Trading Technologies APIs
• Hands-on knowledge of orderflow tools, DOM trading, and footprint charts — has used the tools you are selling
• Prior experience at a charting platform, market data vendor, or trading software company
• FIA membership or equivalent industry-association involvement
