Quant Researcher - Equities Arbitrage - Worlds most successful hedge fund

Job description

The back bone of this firms success

Arguably the most successful hedge fund ever is adding to its London equities team.

The broad mandate is to uncover more ways for the long/short equities PM's to increase the PnL.

You'll likely be coming from either a buy or sell-side environment. If you've stepped away from this (e.g. Into big tech) and have a willingness to come back would also work.

You'll be part of a small central team supporting the firms equities portfolio managers and analysts.

You'll work directly with business leadership and portfolio managers to make decisions about risk, portfolio construction, and the broader investment process, directly impacting returns.

You'll be coming from a highly technical background with a degree or direct experience in maths and stats or financial economics with strong engineering / computer science disciplines.

Finally, you'll be bringing your risk factor modelling experience whilst having the understanding of Portfolio Manager behaviour and asset allocation exposure.

The role requires a three-pillared approach - quantitative intuition, being a truly technical contributor and the communication skills to work closely with the business.

• Relocation packages available if you're outside of London
• Industry-leading total compensation
• Bonus buyouts

Do you have the hunger and grit to be in this environment?
