Job Description:

Nickel Digital Asset Management is one of Europe’s premier investment firms specialising in digital assets and alternative strategies. We combine institutional-grade infrastructure with the agility and vision of a cutting-edge fintech firm. Backed by a team of world-class financial professionals, we are shaping the future of multi-strategy fund management with our Diversified Alpha Fund - a pioneering multi-manager vehicle investing across a range of strategies within the global digital asset space.

As a Portfolio Analyst, you’ll work at the heart of our high-performing multi-manager hedge fund platform. Partnering closely with the Fund Manager and investment leadership team, you'll be exposed to cutting-edge trading strategies and a vibrant network of ‘Pod’ managers – each driving alpha in global digital asset markets.

What you’ll do:

• Collaborate directly with the Fund Manager to oversee the fund.
• Coordinate daily interactions with Pod managers - monitoring, analysing, and supporting their trading activity.
• Perform detailed quantitative analysis on Pod strategies, risk metrics, and profitability.
• Contribute to the due diligence and selection of both new and existing Pods.
• Cultivate strong relationships with Pods, brokers, and exchanges, becoming a key point of contact within the investment ecosystem.

Your technical skills and experience

• A bachelor’s degree in STEM or Economics from a leading university (Russell Group or international equivalent).
• 1–4 years’ experience in a finance, data science, or investment-related role.
• Strong mathematical and statistical modelling skills and a foundation in quantitative methods (e.g., volatility, correlation, Monte Carlo simulations, VaR).
• Python to at least intermediate level.
• A natural problem-solver with a hands-on approach and the confidence to work independently.
• Experience in managing large databases and datasets is advantageous.
• Knowledge of digital assets, market-neutral strategies or trade execution is a plus - but not a dealbreaker; we provide training.
• £70,000 – £80,000 starting salary, reviewed annually
• Performance-based year-end bonus
• 25 days holiday + UK bank holidays
• Private healthcare & Nickel company pension plan
• Daily catered meals & annual wellbeing program
• Team offsites, social events and a culture of inclusion
• Annual training & development allowance and mentoring programme

If this sounds attractive and a good match to your skills and capabilities, then we’d love to hear from you.
