Two former London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) and SIX Swiss Exchange sales specialists have been selected to join US equites alternative trading system (ATS) OneChronos to support its push into Europe.
Former LSEG’s Scott Bradley has been appointed chief executive officer of OneChronos’ London office, effective immediately. Alongside him, former SIX’s Adam Sherlock has been appointed chief executive of the European office and head of the firm’s new European Amsterdam based MTF, effective from 1 April.
The pair will lead the ATS’ push into Europe, co-heading its European Franchise.
Scott Bradley
OneChronos is a smart market, aiming to use mathematical optimisation to match counterparties for institutional investors. It claims to address “the gap between how trading venues match orders and how traders need to execute.”
Bradley left LSEG in November 2022, becoming the latest senior departure to leave the firm as part of a wider simplification of the firm’s leadership across asset classes, as reported by The TRADE.
He had been with the exchange group for nearly six years, joining as its head of sales, marketing and global business development, for its cash secondary markets and Turquoise in 2017.
He took on his most recent role as head of sales and platform distribution for securities trading at LSEG in May 2021.

Adam Sherlock
Prior to joining LSEG, Bradley served in several senior roles at Instinet including as head of EMS and analytics sales for EMEA. He also previously spent 11 and a half years serving in electronic, algorithmic and program trading and sales trading focused roles at ITG, Goldman Sachs, Bear Stearns & Company, JP Morgan and Nomura.
Bradley’s exit followed the departure of Dr. Robert Barnes, chief executive officer at Turquoise, which was also announced in the same month. He left LSEG at the end of 2022 after nine years with the exchange group.
Sherlock had served with SIX for over five years, initially spending two and a half years at the exchange from 2016 to 2018 in an equity sales role before a two and a half year stint at LSEG in a business development role. He re-joined SIX in his most recent European equity sales role in 2021.
Previously in his career, he spent two years at SimCorp in a business development role.
