Quant trader / portfolio manager / prop trading / Investment banking / Sharpe / High Frequency

Are you a successful trader or market maker at a hedge fund or prop desk? Are you looking to take the next step in your career and make the sort of money you got into finance for?

The client is currently interviewing several successful PMs in order to fill open headcount requirements.

My client a leading US hedge fund with over $10bn AUM is opening an office in London. The investors have a real appetite for exposure to different markets and this is necessitating a large scale move into London. The new UK office will have just over $1bn in AUM to allocate accordingly amongst the new traders based purely on your prior record of success.  The firm has large scale exposure to equities and futures systematic trading, but are open to traders looking at any asset class assuming their (very impressive) infrastructure will support it.

Aside from a large capital base this hedge fund can also offer you an excellent infrastructure, having invested heavily in IT and with well established relationships with prime brokerages and clearing houses globally. My client pays well above market rate, with an excellent basic and a percentage of PnL. If you would like to know more please call or email t.leggett@westbourne –partners.com for more information.
