JUNIOR TRADER

We are partnering with a fast-growing proprietary trading firm with offices in New York and London, specialising in high-frequency and intraday trading across options, index arbitrage, futures, equities, and digital assets. Backed by a strong technology platform and an experienced team of developers, the firm provides traders with the infrastructure, capital, and support required to deploy and scale profitable strategies quickly.

This opportunity is ideal for a highly adaptable Junior Quant/Trader looking to gain exposure across multiple areas of systematic trading. Working directly alongside senior leadership, you will contribute to strategy development, alpha research, algorithm design, and day-to-day trading operations. The role offers a unique blend of quantitative research, trading, and technology, making it well suited to candidates who enjoy solving complex problems and taking ownership across a broad range of projects.

What they are looking for:
  • Bachelors in Maths, Physics, Computer Science, or any other numeric / computational subject.
  • Strong skills in Python.
  • Intellectual curiosity with a strong collaborative mindset.
