A multi billion dollar investment manager is looking for a quantitative strategist to join a function that works directly on the investment floor. You'll sit alongside portfolio managers and analysts, and what you build gets used almost as soon as it's finished, not reviewed weeks later in a meeting. The team is still early in its growth, so there's real room to shape how it works, not just execute inside a structure that's already set. It's a strong fit for someone with real quantitative depth and engineering discipline who wants to help build something rather than maintain it.
Key Responsibilities:
Model & Analytics Development: Design, build, and maintain quantitative models and analytics used in live investment and risk management decisions.
Direct PM Collaboration: Work closely with portfolio managers and analysts. Problems come up in real time, and so do the solutions.
Production Grade Engineering: Build code, packages, and tools that other people can actually rely on, including dashboards or UIs where useful.
Research to Production: Take research and analysis and turn it into something robust enough to plug into the investment process, not just a one-time result.
Growing Scope: As the team and the number of portfolio managers it supports grows, so does the range of problems you'll get to work on and the ownership you'll have over how they're solved.
Requirements & Qualifications
Experience:
Roughly 2 to 5 years in a front office quantitative role (desk strat, quantitative developer, or similar) at a bank or comparable investment platform.
Quantitative Foundation: Strong grounding in probability, statistics, linear algebra, and numerical methods.
Engineering Ability: Real production quality coding experience, you should be comfortable building tools that other people depend on, not just running your own scripts.
Markets Knowledge: Exposure to financial markets or products, the specific asset class background is flexible, we care more about how you think than which product you've covered.
Soft Skills: Strong communicator, pragmatic, commercially minded, and comfortable working directly with senior investment professionals.
