Job description

VivCourt is a multi-strategy trading firm with a unique proposition; we put people first and prioritise fairness in the way we lead the business. Leveraging robust technology and a flexible research platform, we work together to find value across all markets and products.

As a quant trader at VivCourt, you'll be free to explore new ideas and lead your own strategy. We provide the right tools, resources and support so that your success can drive ours. Together, we'll build a profitable business shaped by your vision.

What You'll Do:

• Leverage your alpha and expertise to build and deploy profitable strategies
• Use your quant skills to research and continuously improve existing and develop new strategies

What We Offer:

• A skill set built around statistics, data science, programming and capital markets
• Eagerness to collaborate and contribute in a team culture

Our Approach:

VivCourt does things differently. We've replaced the traditional shareholder model with one that prioritises our people, ensuring that those who generate value are rewarded. With no non-compete agreements, we foster a culture where employees stay by choice, not obligation. Profit is a by-product of our purpose: creating a positive impact through charitable giving and a fair, fulfilling work environment.

We have capital ready to deploy and are able to onboard and support teams/individuals with standalone strategies or hire traders into existing desks.

If you're ready to take ownership of your strategies and join a firm built around freedom and fairness, VivCourt is the place for you. VivCourt values diversity and inclusivity, offering equal opportunities to all. We encourage skilled individuals of all backgrounds, abilities, and cultures to apply.
