Appropriate candidates must have at least 5 years experience working as a quantitative analyst within the field of high frequency statistical arbitrage at a top investment bank or leading hedge fund. You should be able to work closely with traders, understand their strategies and offer quantitative solutions to optimise their models. My client is only looking to meet with the markets‘ top quants and the successful candidate will be expected to bring unique quantitative skills to an already gifted team of mathematicians.
Interested candidates should have extensive experience in the following;
· Time Series Econometrics
· Parametric and non-parametric regression

You should be able to generate industry standard C++ code and experience in Java will also be extremely helpful.
