High frequency quant trader – Impressive % of PnL offered recruitment

High frequency quant traders wanted.

We are currently representing a multi-strategy prop trading firm who has offices in both london and New York and who are seeking quant traders. Indeed they have several active headcount currently due to aggressive expanion plans. Specifically they are seeking high frequency quant traders who have experience in either Fixed Income, FX or equities. Sharpes of 4+ may be considered, but definitively not lower.

This client can offer between 20 and 50% of PnL dependent on Sharpes, drawdowns, PnL history, etc, etc. and the successful candidate can expect to be capitalised with between $75mio and $800mio USD (dependent on prior trading history)

they have spent several million pounds on cutting edge high-frequency/low-latency co-located infrastructure and have been reaping huge alpha for the last several years as a result.

This requirement is a very high priority for my client and they are already in early stage talks with more than one candidate; however they are not looking for an immediate start and they expect to have to wait for up to 6 months for non-competes to expire, etc.

If you would like to be considered please contact Theo Leggett at t.leggett@westbourne-partners.com
