Job description

A multi-manager hedge fund is looking to hire an operations analyst to cover front-to-back operations / trader assistant tasks for a specific investment pod.

The role, working alongside a more senior operations analyst, supports a high-volume investment team that you face-off to. Dealing with ad-hoc requests for the Portfolio Manager and Traders, alongside BAU tasks, will be a regular responsibility. More broadly the hire will manage hands-on tasks such as trade bookings, trade capture, P&L analysis, reconciliations + he/she will manage fail trades, settlement issues and P&L breaks. The firm have invested a lot of money into tech, so many operations processes are automated / less manual than at other firms, meaning work is often more high-level and analytical. This is a role with a broad remit, high visibility and autonomy, at a leading hedge fund.

Candidates should have 1-3yrs experience in a hedge fund operations / IB trade support role. Our client favours candidates with high-profile academics and advanced tech skills.

The role is budgeted to pay a £55-65k base salary to allow for the successful hire to achieve an attractive step-up on his/her current base. Top performing operations analysts at the firm can earn 50% bonuses.
