Job Description:

I’m working with a high-performing, mid-sized macro hedge fund in London that’s consistently delivering strong returns and expanding its footprint in mid-frequency futures trading. They’re seeking a Senior Quantitative Researcher to spearhead alpha research and strategy development across global futures markets, with a focus on signal generation, execution modelling, and statistical techniques.

This is a front-office role with direct PnL exposure, offering close collaboration with top-tier researchers and technologists in a performance-driven, agile environment. You’ll enjoy full ownership over your research pipeline, access to rich datasets and compute resources, and the autonomy to bring strategies from idea to live trading without bureaucracy.

If you're an experienced quant looking to make real impact, move fast, and be part of a collaborative and elite trading team, I’d be happy to share more details.
