Job Description

Quantitative Analyst / Quantitative Research Analyst

Hampshire, Remote Hybrid. 1-2 days a week onsite.

New Product Environment | Modern SaaS Platform | AI Invested

We're recruiting for a Quantitative Research Analyst, joining a new product team with the opportunity to build something from the ground up and make a significant impact across the business.

The product itself isn't financial, but the challenge has strong parallels with quantitative trading and financial modelling - working with complex datasets, building structured models and using data to drive better decisions.

What you'll be doing...

  • Building and refining quantitative models and decision-support frameworks
  • Combining complex datasets to identify patterns, trends and opportunities
  • Developing approaches to ranking, weighting and interpreting data
  • Using Python, R, SQL and Excel for analysis and modelling
  • Helping shape a completely new analytical capability within the business

What we're looking for...

We're particularly interested in people currently working as a Quantitative Analyst, or a Data Analyst within quantitative trading / financial markets, who can bring that analytical approach into a new environment.

You'll need a strong academic background in a highly quantitative subject such as Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Finance, Engineering or similar, alongside strong quantitative modelling and data analysis experience.

Why apply?

This is an opportunity to take the techniques and analytical thinking associated with financial quantitative analysis and apply them to a completely different product and problem space.

You'll be joining at the beginning of a new product capability, with significant scope to influence how it develops and the potential to make a major impact within the wider business.

Have what it takes?

Hit apply!
