High Frequency Quant Trader / Strategist recruitment

My client, a high frequency systematic proprietary trading house, is looking for high frequency systematic traders and quantitative researchers for London and New York. Formed two years ago by the former global head of algorithmic trading from a leading Investment Bank, they trade all liquid assets with a focus on FX (largest movers of foreign currency on the interbank exchange) and are looking to grow their Systematic Fixed Income and Equity statistical arbitrage business.

They have done exceptionally well in the recent market volatility and are interested in any developers, strategists or quant traders who can essentially assist in the expansion of the high frequency equity and fixed income business. They are looking to hire many individuals and make outstanding offers (base, guarantee, % of PnL) as well as the opportunity to work one of the fastest growing and successful systematic prop firms in the market.

To apply you must have the following traits:

• High understanding of algorithmic/systematic trading

• Strong Quantitative background with an MSc or PhD in a Mathematical/Quant related field

• Good knowledge of programming in at least one language

• Creative idea generation and the ability to contribute to the team
