Having achieved both exceptional performance and rapid expansion over the past few years in the US, and now with a plan to buildout macro/fixed income further in EMEA, this newly created hire is seen as a crucial addition to that development. The hire, working alongside Investment Heads / Managing Partners, will be responsible for shaping the direction of the strategy, from a perspective of risk management and trading, extending to managing an expanding team of PM’s, traders and risk professionals (taking ownership of high performing trading desks / being actively involved in the investment process). Aspects of portfolio construction, strategy optimisation, back-testing of strategies + understanding correlations between existing strategies and potential new strategies also form part of what is a broad, highly technical, strategic and commercial remit.

Candidates should have 10-15yrs experience, from a risk management background, or a trading / portfolio management background looking for a career change. A macro/fixed income/rates background is required. We can only consider hedge fund specialists for this hire.

The role is paying a £300-400k year one TC, with year-on-year growth promised to an outstanding performer.
