Job Description:

A boutique hedge fund, with a sizeable, rapidly expanding AUM and recent market-leading performance, is looking to hire a new Head of Operations.

The firm is experiencing a strong period of growth and, following an internal restructure, they will hire a backfill Head of Operations (including a handover period before the current head moves internally).

The hire will manage a small team with a dual hands-on and managerial role, overseeing key internal and external stakeholders, and leading projects such as building new tools, system implementations, and onboarding new service providers.

The ideal candidate is a buy-side senior operations analyst or an existing operations manager seeking their first step into a Head of Operations role. Hands-on BAU experience is more important than managerial experience, although supervisory experience is a plus. Strong academic records and industry qualifications are highly regarded.

The role offers a first-year salary of £140-170k TC, with strong expected year-on-year growth.

Remote work is possible two days per week once the candidate is established in the role.
