Stockbroker

A Stockbroker manages the sale and purchase of stocks and shares for their clients. You’ll monitor market performance and provide advice on the best time to buy or sell investments. Stockbrokers might meet with clients to determine their needs and analyse market trends. You might check share prices and make decisions about selling or purchasing stock.

Stockbrokers should be decisive and have a strong understanding of current financial markets. It’s important you can communicate well and understand your clients’ needs. Stockbrokers require excellent analytical skills and should be up to date with financial trends. You’ll need to be organised and able to manage several tasks at one time.
