Job Description:

A multi-billion dollar AUM Hedge Fund is looking to make a newly created hire for its expanding London office.

The hire will report directly to the European Head of Operations / Middle Office and will be SME for equities, taking ownership of operations and middle office tasks for the firm’s expanding equities investment strategy. As many tasks are outsourced, a core focus is on analytical tasks, oversight of external service providers, and project work, mainly focused on infrastructure buildout or support for equities investment professionals. The hire will act as a first point of contact for the European equities business, liaising with multiple Prime Brokers.

The firm values strong progression and development; the initial goal is for the hire to develop into an ‘Operations Manager’. Other career paths within the global operations team include roles in desk assistance, business management, treasury, and change management. There is also potential for internal transfer to international offices for top performers.

Candidates should have 5-10 years of experience in hedge fund operations, with a strong background in equities, excellent academic credentials, and strong technical skills.

The role offers a salary range of £80,000 to £110,000, with top performers earning substantial bonuses.
