Ready to Bet on Yourself?

At Mercantile Exchange, we don’t do average. We’re a 30-year veteran in the foreign exchange (FX) space with the energy of a high-growth startup. If you’re confident on the phone, hungry to win, and serious about building a career — not just getting a job — then we want to hear from you.

This is your shot to enter one of the most exciting and fast-paced industries in the world: financial markets. The right candidate will work directly with business owners and executives across Canada, helping them save money on their global payments and hedge against market risk — all while building a high-income career with no ceiling.

What You'll Do:

- Hunt for new business via outbound calls, email outreach, and creative prospecting
- Become a master at identifying decision makers and building relationships quickly
- Educate companies on how we can beat their bank or broker’s FX pricing (and service)
- Work directly with senior FX traders to close deals and grow your book
- Track your progress, hit goals, and get promoted to a full-time currency trader

What We're Looking For:

- You sound great on the phone. Charisma, confidence, and clarity matter more than experience.
- You’re competitive, driven, and coachable. You want mentorship, but you're ready to put in the work.
- A genuine interest in financial markets or global economics is a big plus.




- You want to grow with a company and build your own book of clients — not clock in and out.
- Cold calling or sales experience is a bonus, but we’ll train the right personality.
- Degree or not — we care more about energy and ambition than your GPA.
- Team player who thrives in a fun, fast-paced environment.
- Bilingual (especially French) is an asset, but not required.

The Opportunity:

- $60K base + uncapped 10% commission
- Year 1 OTE: $65K–70K, Year 2: $85K+, Year 3: $100K+
- Fast-track promotion path from Business Development to FX Broker within 12–18 months
- Work with seasoned traders who have managed billions in currency transactions
- Join a team where the top performers are building six-figure careers

Perks & Culture:

- Casual office with downtown Calgary views
- Beer fridge Fridays
- Full advantages (health, dental, vision)
- Ongoing training & mentorship from industry pros
- Real growth, not empty promises — we promote from within
- A high-performance culture that rewards hustle
