About the Role

This role at a global investment and technology firm for its systematic trading research combines mathematical modelling, software development, and empirical market research. The position is responsible for turning ideas into strategies tested against real-world data. The work focuses on problems where improved signals, lower risk, and more efficient execution are crucial.

Key Responsibilities

  • Use financial data to investigate opportunities to improve profitability, manage risk, and reduce transaction costs.
  • Develop statistical models and translate research ideas into systematic trading strategies.
  • Critically test strategies, separating durable results from noise and understanding their behavior under different market conditions.
  • Write software that supports research, analysis, and implementation.

Qualifications

  • A strong academic record in mathematics, statistics, physics, engineering, computer science, or another highly quantitative discipline.
  • Excellent analytical reasoning and the ability to express quantitative ideas precisely.
  • Programming ability and an interest in applying mathematical methods to financial markets.
  • Curiosity, creativity, and the discipline to evaluate your own hypotheses rigorously.
  • This could suit a recent graduate or early-career researcher with exceptional quantitative foundations who wants to work across modelling, coding, and systematic investing.
