At One Trading, we’re excited to welcome Steven Harper as our new Chief Security Officer. With a career spanning over 25 years in software development and security, Steven joins us at a pivotal moment as we prepare to launch the first perpetual futures trading venue in the EU.

Meet Steven Harper

Steven’s career has been defined by impactful roles at major organizations such as Orange, EE, Infinity Works, and Accenture, where he gained extensive experience as a software engineer, solutions architect, and applications developer.

Our innovative use of technology—including real-time settlement and integrated DLT-based custody—sets a new benchmark for efficiency in trading.

With security and compliance as the pillars of our operations, Steven’s appointment reinforces our enduring commitment to delivering a robust and trusted platform. His leadership will be fundamental in ensuring the platform’s resilience as we expand our services and continue to address the evolving requirements of our clients.
