About LMAX Group

LMAX Group is a financial technology company headquartered in London that runs institutional FX and digital asset trading venues. It has no separate student hub: graduate, junior and apprentice openings sit on the same careers site as every other job, and the ones open to UK entrants have been based in London. Right now that is a single role, "Junior Software Developer (Java)".

You apply role by role. Each advert has its own page on LMAX's own careers site and its own form, so there is no one early careers application covering several programmes. No LMAX advert we read carries a closing date, and the job openings page says only "We are always on the lookout for talented individuals to join our team.", so nothing tells you how long a role will stay up. The form is short: name, email, phone and a CV are required, a cover letter is optional, and two questions are compulsory, "What are your salary expectations?" and "Do you have eligibility to work in the UK?". Have a salary number ready before you start. LMAX publishes no interview stages and no reapplication rule anywhere on its own site.

LMAX publishes no opening or closing dates, so everything datable here comes from its own systems and from archived captures of its careers site. Its applicant tracking system records the current "Junior Software Developer (Java)" as published on 3 September 2026, and a year earlier a Junior Software Developer role was already listed on the careers site by 9 September 2025. The three graduate programmes for 2026 entry were still listed on 13 November 2025 and had gone from the job openings page by 6 December 2025, so the one graduate round we can date closed well before Christmas.

  • No LMAX advert we read publishes a closing date. The job openings page says only "We are always on the lookout for talented individuals to join our team."
  • The application form makes two questions compulsory alongside your CV: "What are your salary expectations?" and "Do you have eligibility to work in the UK?". LMAX does not state anywhere on its own site whether it sponsors visas, so the eligibility question is a screen you should answer honestly rather than a sponsorship offer.
  • The "Junior Software Developer (Java)" advert sets no degree requirement, no subject requirement and no grade requirement. Its requirements are written as behaviours, opening with "Be passionate about software development."
