Job Description:

A major quant strategy hedge fund is looking to make a unique hire into its expanding London-based trade support team.

The role has a core tech/development focus – involving a heavily analytical, hands-on approach to typical trade support responsibilities (beyond manual processing), and ongoing automation and process improvement projects. The role also involves working on ad-hoc projects for the tech, quant, and investment teams. While not mandatory from day one, the candidate will have the opportunity to learn Python, SQL, VBA, and R to a strong standard (with some Matlab, C++, and C# knowledge beneficial).

This position is ideal for a current operations, middle office, or trade support analyst at an IB, hedge fund, or prop firm who possesses strong technical skills but seeks to apply and improve them practically. The role offers potential for progression into management as the team expands or a move into tech, quant, or front-office roles. There may also be opportunities to relocate overseas to the firm's HQ or other offices.

Candidates should have 2-5 years of relevant line operations or trade support experience, a strong STEM academic background, and some advanced coding skills, preferably in Python.

The salary range is £65-85k, reflecting a significant step up for candidates within the target experience range. Top performers will receive a substantial bonus in the first year, with potential for significant growth in subsequent years.
