Quantitative/Algorithmic Start Up Fund – Chicago/New York – Quantitative Traders or Researchers
I have recently taken on a search with an algorithmic trading company headquartered in Chicago with offices also in New York and London.
The company started trading over 12 months ago and have been highly successful growing by over 500% in the first two years since inception. The company specialise in High Frequency trading across all markets and are looking to grow all areas within the business; including technology, quantitative research and trading.
My client is looking to hire a number of candidates that will have a proven track record in designing and running profitable trading strategies. The most important thing is general smartness, ability to think outside the box and PnL history as an individual or within a collaborative environment. It is also important that the relevant candidates have studied at an Ivy type college within CS, EE, Maths, Physics or Stats.
The firm has a very strong reputation for being a relaxed working environment, a platform for success, people are encouraged to work collaboratively and new individuals are given freedom, time and resources to ensure they integrate well into the stable environment.
If successful within the process my client are happy to offer exceptional packages that will include basic salary, guaranteed bonus(first year), sign on bonus and individual and team PnL percentages. All candidates are expected to have some form of non-compete, this not a problem.
Further information regarding the company and opportunities is limited due to NDA agreements, if you would like to speak further about this in strictest confidence please feel free to call my cell +447786 395075 or send an email to b.herman@westbourne-partners.com
