You will be given the opportunity to work with some of the market-leading strategy developers, develop your own strategies and models, and be given the opportunity to trade within a very short period of time.

You will ideally have up to three years experience developing strategies on an automated/systematic trading desk, an MSc or PhD in a quantitative subject, and the ability to develop computer programs for real time trading and risk analysis. Quantitative modelling skills, dynamic programming ability in languages such as Matlab/C++/Java, and excellent problem solving skills are key. Primarily you will be judged on your quantitative and programming ability, and your drive to enter a trading environment. A top academic background will be a significant advantage, as will some financial exposure for one or two years out of education in an automated market making group. Alternatively, relevant post-doc experience would be a plus.
