A leading hedge fund is looking for a Front Office Trader Assistant to join its trading desk in a highly visible, fast-paced role. This is not a traditional middle-office position, you will sit close to the investment process and work daily with the CIO, Portfolio Managers and Traders, supporting trading activity across the fund and becoming a key point of contact between the investment desk and the wider business. The role will cover trade execution support, position and P&L monitoring, risk and exposure analysis, trade booking and lifecycle management, alongside resolving issues directly with PMs, counterparties and Prime Brokers.
You will gain exceptional exposure to how a hedge fund manages money, with the opportunity to understand portfolio construction, trading decisions and risk management first-hand. The role can pay up to £90k on the base. Support staff at the firm typically earn 50-100% bonuses.
