About me

A former Royal Navy officer, Nathan Johnston Lockhart brings precision, composure under pressure, and a relentless drive for results to the financial markets, ready to excel make an impact in one of the world’s most dynamic arenas.

I am Nathan Johnston Lockhart—a former military officer who served in the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm, with a career defined by discipline, adaptability, and exceptional performance under pressure. Raised in Northern Ireland by a single father, I developed resilience and a relentless work ethic early in life. As the first in my family to attend university, I chose to forego completing my degree in favor of gaining practical experience, moving to Dubai at 19 to immerse myself in offshore wealth management. This bold step sharpened my understanding of global finance and laid the foundation for my career aspirations.

Before my military career, I undertook a transformative personal challenge, shedding over 100 pounds in under six months to meet the rigorous standards of military service. This experience exemplified my ability to set ambitious goals, create a structured plan, and execute with precision—a process that mirrors the discipline and determination required to excel in financial markets.

As a military officer, I honed critical decision-making skills in high-pressure, dynamic environments, mastering situational awareness, strategic thinking, and adaptability. Operating in unpredictable circumstances, where stakes were high and outcomes depended on precision, taught me the importance of clarity and calculated action—qualities essential for navigating the complexities of financial markets.

My move to New York is a deliberate step toward building a career in the financial markets at the highest level. I am eager to immerse myself in a trading environment where ambition, precision, and results drive success. With a proven ability to perform under pressure, a global perspective, and an unrelenting commitment to excellence, I am ready to develop expertise, deliver value, and succeed in one of the most competitive fields in the world.
