Almost two months have passed since the demise of London-based retail FX brokerage Tradenext, which terminated its relationship with all retail clients just before its co-owner Jagjit Singh wasarrested in India amid allegations of swindling customers of the Crown Credit Cooperative Society.
The unfortunate byproduct of a company’s demise is the loss of employment by staff through no fault of their own, however Tradenext’s talent is most certainly making waves elsewhere.
The latest example of this is the appointment of former Tradenext Creative Director John Evans as Marketing Director at London’s Citypoint Trading Ltd, an FCA regulated company which offers FX and CFDs.
Mr. Evans has specialized in creative and digital marketing within FX firms for some time, beginning this direction of his career at ODL Markets in March 2008, when he became Design and Development Consultant for the firm.
Citypoint Trading Ltd is a familiar company to Mr. Evans, as he previously held the position of Branding and Marketing Consultant for the firm for a year and a half, based in Amman, Jordan between August 2010 and December 2011 on a consultancy basis, simultaneous to his contract position at One Financial Marekts where he was Marketing, Design and Development Consultant, responsible for brand development, web, CMS, CRM and application development as well as the user interface for the firm’s website.
At the end of 2012, Mr. Evans undertook a three month consultancy role at Easy Forex, where he was responsible for designing the firm’s online campaign concepts for banners, landing pages and emails.
Within the last three years, Mr. Evans has provided design, development and branding services to FXdirekt Bank, Abshire Smith, and ForexTrading.tv before joining Tradenext in December 2013.
An alumnus of Barking College, where he graduated with a HND in Multimedia in 2003, Mr. Evans has published a litany of projects relating to his experience within digital content creation for FX firms.
