It may surprise you to know some of the biggest earners in the banking industry are the IT programmers…

Programme Traders

Life in the City is not all about pinstripe suits, floppy hair and slick traders locked in glass offices. These IT whizzes run large-scale, computer assisted trading strategies, where decisions to buy or sell are triggered automatically by price movements.

Think about it

Every millisecond that a computer takes to transfer vital data to the stock market could potentially cost millions in lost revenue. Therefore the faster the machine functions – the faster the vital share statistics can be processed to the trade floor. Speed, resilience and security are therefore essential for success!

IT programmers are therefore INVALUABLE to the huge banks and successful corporations such as Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Merrill Lynch, to name but a few, will pay HUGE sums for top professionals.
