Algorithmic Trading consultant Quantitative analyst (PhD/MSc – Bank)

Top equity derivatives group is looking for an exceptional candidate to support the development of the technology platform for "execution services" in Europe. This is a strong business oriented position but will require strong technological experience as candidate will develop a leading execution platform for this large equity division.

We are not looking for a project manager. Candidates will be closely involved in the Algorithmic Trading Quant efforts. Candidates will also be expected to work on the development of cutting-edge exotic equity and hybrid derivative models/products.

IT skills preferred but role will NOT be hands on. Tasks will include: statistical analysis, risk management, design and testing of trading strategies. The role will be highly visible and requires a very good understanding of the systems and problems plus good communication and organization skills.

A suitable candidate that has built similar systems or have taken a leading role in similar process projects will also be of interest, offering an opportunity to jump to the business side.

This is an opportunity to join a world-leading equity derivatives business at a time of unprecedented expansion.
