Job Description

Who we are

Proxymity is a market leading digital investor communications platform focused on providing regulatory compliant products, focused initially on Proxy Voting and Shareholder Disclosure services. Founded in London and spun out of Citi, from the very beginning our mission focused on benefitting the whole capital markets ecosystem, rather than just one part or one player within it. This ethos is endorsed by investment from global consortium of some the industry’s most influential financial institutions.

Proxymity’s service offering is now a global one, matching the needs of our custodian and broker community respectively. This is reflected by a fast-growing client base who have long desired an improved service by a trusted vendor. As a result, we are a fast-growth company and have already gone from 10 - 200+ employees in the last five years with a global footprint in London, Manchester, New York, Tel-Aviv, Melbourne and Kuala Lumpur.
