An established industry player is seeking a Trader Assistant to support a team of traders in London. This exciting role involves managing multiple portfolios and executing tasks that are crucial for trading operations. The ideal candidate will have a knack for coding and process automation, contributing to various projects that enhance efficiency within the team. With a competitive salary and a generous bonus structure, this position offers a fantastic opportunity to grow in a dynamic financial environment while enjoying the flexibility of working from home. If you are passionate about finance and technology, this role is perfect for you.
Our client, a high performing global hedge fund, is looking to make a newly created trader assistant hire (due to internal progression into a trader seat) in London.
The role will have ownership over 5-6 traders/portfolios, which are cross-strategy, to run a broad front office focused remit which includes managing spreads, unwinds, novations, orders, and picking up execution tasks. The hire will also work on many ad-hoc tasks and projects for the traders they cover, as well as process automation projects more broadly within the TA team (coding skills and/or an aptitude to develop coding skills are therefore useful in this role).
The role is budgeted to pay a base salary of between £80 – 110k with a target bonus level of 50% in year one, while longer-term TA's globally can typically earn 70-100% bonuses. The fund provides all staff with a great benefits package and while this is a desk role, they can offer WFH flexibility.
