A multi-billion dollar AUM hedge fund is looking to hire an investment data analyst in London.
Supporting the firm’s flagship European investment strategy, the hire will directly support the London investment desk in identifying, sourcing, and analysing investment data. The hire will take ownership of managing a selection of vendors, with a front-to-back coverage of the data management process and responsibility to improve the efficiency of the data activity.
There is a core project management component to the role, typically managing data engineers and technologists on the delivery of varied initiatives, extending to building data quality processes and optimising the onboarding of data and data delivery, which the hire would be more involved with hands-on (implementing new data quality frameworks, creating processes and policies to improve data resources and capabilities, etc.).
Candidates should have 2-7 years of experience in data management, more specifically verifying data quality and onboarding new data sets ideally. Candidates should work for a hedge fund, investment bank, data vendor, or software consultancy. A sound understanding of financial markets and derivatives is expected, as are advanced tech skills.
The role has a £65-100k base salary range as there is flexibility around the experience level we hire at. Either way, the hire can be assured of a very attractive step-up on their current base. Bonuses will make up a large percentage of the base for a top performer.
