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 a 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, primarily focused on infrastructure buildout or support for equities investment professionals. The hire will be the first point of contact for multiple prime brokers (PBs) for the European equities business.

The firm has a strong progression culture. The initial aim is for the hire to develop into an ‘Operations Manager’. Other members of the global operations team have advanced into roles such as desk assistant, business management, treasury, and change management, offering various future progression opportunities. Top performers may also transfer internally to international offices.

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

The role offers a salary range of £80-110k initially, with top performers earning substantial bonuses.
