      About Five Rings

      Five Rings is a proprietary trading firm founded with a vision of combining strategy, innovation and technology to succeed in today’s global markets. With offices in New York and London, Five Rings trades in various domestic and international markets, both established and esoteric. Our team constantly seeks new opportunities, analyzes their risks and rewards, and creates strategies and tools to capitalize on them.


      We have an open culture and encourage the flow of knowledge and ideas between all areas of the firm.


      About the Role

      The Technology team seeks a Project Coordinator to assist with the implementation of systems projects serving the maintenance and enhancement of the firm’s trading infrastructure. Primary tasks comprise providing visibility onto a large project portfolio and ensuring information is updated in real-time, developing and coordinating project plans, organizing and validating invoices, collaborating with the administrative team for procurement, travel and shipping logistics, inventorying and ordering necessary technical supplies at multiple datacenters and offices around the world, and updating team members of potential issues and changing deliverables. The Project Coordinator will report directly to the CTO and work closely with the systems infrastructure and administrative teams to help ensure the effective and timely completion of projects.


      This is a fully in-person role (5 days/week in-office) in our lower Manhattan headquarters, but could transition to a hybrid role if the coordinator demonstrates the necessary organizational skills.


      Responsibilities Include:

      • Creating and maintaining project plans and consistently providing high quality documentation and reports to stakeholders.

      • Developing and following best practices to ensure orderly execution of projects.

      • Collaborating closely with our infrastructure team and CTO to define clear project objectives aligning with operational requirements.

      • Assessing project risk exposures to identify and mitigate issues before they occur

      • Upholding effective communication between the infrastructure team, software developers, key stakeholders, leadership, and external vendors.

      • Identifying and executing opportunities for enhancement of operational efficiencies.


      About You:

      • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Information Systems, Computer Science, Business Analytics, Information Science, or similar field of study

      • 0-5 years of project management experience

      • Demonstrated ability to manage and prioritize multiple simultaneous activities to completion

      • Outstanding organizational and communication skills

      • Good understanding of IT systems and practices

      • Experience working in the trading industry is a plus


      Annual base salary: $100,000 - $125,000. Total compensation packages are comprised of base salary and a discretionary bonus.
