Job description

Our client, a notable credit fund, is seeking to hire an experienced and talented investment professional to their multi-strategy credit team in London.

The fund has a fantastic track record – both in terms of YTD 2025 and annualised performance – as well as attracting significant AUM increases, and is seeking to build up this continual growth by making a key hire into their investment group.

The role will focus on generating and executing investment across macro credit and associated credit derivatives, and will suit an individual at VP-level upwards to Director/MD.

The responsibilities will include:

• Developing investment ideas across bonds, CDS, indexes, options, tranches and other similar structured credit securities
• Contribute to/lead the development of quantitative investment tools and strategies
• Support the CIO and senior PMs across other credit-focused strategies
• Develop hedging strategies on a cross-asset basis

The successful candidate will have proven experience developing and investing in structured and macro credit products, either on the buy side (portfolio management, investment professional, research analyst, etc.) or on the sell side (credit strategist, credit desk quant, macro credit trader/analyst, XVA quant or trader, etc.). The successful candidate will require significant credit derivatives expertise – as well as ideally possessing knowledge of other adjacent trading strategies (equity vol, rates, etc.) and will also need to possess appropriate quantitative skills.
