• Collaborate closely with execution and infrastructure teams to minimise latency, slippage, and implementation shortfall.
• Analyse large-scale market datasets to identify new opportunities and improve existing strategies.
• Maintain clear documentation of strategy design, risk frameworks, research findings, and performance attribution.
• Communicate portfolio positioning, performance, and risk exposures effectively to internal stakeholders.
• Contribute to the broader research culture by sharing insights, ideas, and best practices across the investment team.
