Trading Desk Assistant – Hedge Fund – Front Office progression
A US Hedge Fund, with a small, expanding satellite office in London, is looking to hire a Trader Assistant.
Working directly for the European Head Trader, the hire will manage prime broker relationships, all trade breaks & issues, PM limits & requests, performance & risk reports, and oversee execution. The hire will also regularly work on a wide range of projects for the trading team.
The intention is for the hire to progress into an outright trader role within 2 years, in line with fund growth (an internal move to the New York office is also a possibility).
We are looking for candidates with 2-5 years of relevant experience, who have ambitions to progress into trading. A passion for financial markets is key. Candidates must have advanced Excel skills, with any VBA, SQL, or Python skills being extremely beneficial.
