Hantec Markets onboards Michael O’Sullivan as technology head

He ended a three-year tenure at London-headquartered INFINOX where he served in similar roles, preceded by a shorter stint as a project manager at ATFX UK.

Michael has strong experience and knowledge of Forex market operations and has held various positions at a few brokerage houses. He will be utilizing his experience at Hantec Markets to help increase the company’s client base through new technology upgrades.

The bulk of O’Sullivan’s career, which dates back to 2005, was spent at CMC Markets where he worked for more than 14 years. While there, he was tasked with partnerships, operations and implementations at the FCA regulated forex trading broker, which has been inducted into the FTSE 250.

During his long stint with CMC Markets, he helped the company develop and execute a universal sales strategy for its global operations apart from his other duties.

“[I have] senior financial trading experience across B2C, B2B, matrix-style and international organisations and [am] highly skilled at developing and managing strategic affiliate, franchisee and partnership distribution channels,” Michael says on his LinkedIn page.

Mr. O’Sullivan also has cross functional experience in product and project management and operations delivery combined with extensive background on software development, which gives him an edge in commercial solution-selling and financial trading technology implementation.
