About CBCX
CBCX Group began its journey in 2011 with a group of market specialists who shared one belief: institutional trading deserved better. Better pricing, better stability, better technology - and above all, better partnership. What started as a modest ambition quickly became a mission to redefine how liquidity is delivered across global markets.
From those early days, the team worked relentlessly to build an environment that mirrored interbank standards - precise, transparent, and built for professionals. As the company grew, so did its reach. CBCX Group expanded from a single vision into a global presence, establishing teams in the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Mauritius, and other jurisdictions. Each new office represented another milestone, another chapter in a story shaped by people who believed in excellence.
Over the years, CBCX Group evolved into an award‑winning multi‑asset liquidity provider, trusted by traders, brokers, and asset managers around the world. Our technology became faster, our products broader, and our support stronger. From forex and precious metals to commodities, indices, and futures, CBCX Group built an institutional‑grade trading ecosystem powered by deep liquidity and a commitment to world‑class execution.
But behind every achievement is our team. A diverse, international group driven by integrity, innovation, and a shared desire to push boundaries. Our UK team, energetic and collaborative, plays a pivotal part in keeping our global operations moving and our clients supported across every region we serve.
Today, CBCX Group continues to grow - not just in size, but in ambition. And as we enter the next chapter of our story, we’re looking for people who want to be part of something that’s constantly evolving. Someone reliable, capable, and eager to help shape the future of how global markets connect.
If you join us, you won’t just be joining a company.
You’ll be joining a story still being written.
