Quantitative Researcher – Fundamental Equity Research

Apply locations London, UK posted on Posted 30+ Days Ago job requisition id R2518

Do you want to tackle the biggest questions in finance with near infinite compute power at your fingertips?

G-Research is a leading quantitative research and technology firm, with offices in London and Dallas. We are proud to employ some of the best people in their field and to nurture their talent in a dynamic, flexible and highly stimulating culture where world-beating ideas are cultivated and rewarded.

This role is based in our new Soho Place office – opened in 2023 - in the heart of Central London and home to our Research Lab.

The role

Our researchers use the latest scientific techniques and advanced statistical analysis methods to predict movement in global financial markets.

This requires them to harness massive compute power and use state-of-the-art ML techniques to find innovative solutions, as textbook methods won’t beat the competition.

We are looking to hire an experienced fundamental analyst, with a strong quantitative background, who is interested in transitioning to a more quantitative role, while still leveraging your industry experience.

This is a pure research role where you will be able to develop and test your ideas with real-world data in an academic environment. Using your financial knowledge and analytical skills, you will help to build mathematical models of price movements based on a broad array of data inputs.

Who are we looking for?

We are seeking individuals with a passion for, and keen interest in, financial markets. The ideal candidate will have solid quantitative and computing skills, backed up by a strong background in fundamental equity research.

For example, this might be someone already working in the discretionary space, who enjoys the mathematical and data side of things, and is interested in making the step across into the quantitative world.

In particular, we want to hear from highly motivated candidates with the following skills and experience:

• Knowledge of financial markets from a strong career background in fundamental equity research
• Some coding ability or the motivation to rapidly learn
• Solid maths background gained from experience in studying maths, physics or a related STEM subject
• Enthusiastic about making the change to a quantitative role

Why should you apply?

• Highly competitive compensation plus annual discretionary bonus
• Lunch provided (via Just Eat for Business) and dedicated barista bar
• 35 days’ annual leave
• 9% company pension contributions
• Informal dress code and excellent work/life balance
• Comprehensive healthcare and life assurance
• Cycle-to-work scheme
• Monthly company events

G-Research is committed to cultivating and preserving an inclusive work environment. We are an ideas-driven business and we place great value on diversity of experience and opinions.

We want to ensure that applicants receive a recruitment experience that enables them to perform at their best. If you have a disability or special need that requires accommodation please let us know in the relevant section
