Following significant growth and consistent performance a Multi Strat Hedge Fund, which recently launched its London Office is targeting a Middle Office Analyst. 

The fund is extremely broad in nature trading across multiple asset classes and regions.  The Middle Office hire will work closely with the Trading Desk supporting pre and post execution across the entire portfolio suite. 

The role is a growth hire to support the appetite for continued expansion and scale for the fund.  

Duties will include but not limited to:

• Front office engagement supporting pre and post execution
• Monitoring and analysing live trading positions and P&L and ad hoc risk reporting
• NAV Analysis and attribution reporting
• Trade booking and allocations
• Reference and Static Data
• Trade Confirmations
• T0 Trade Matching and Reconciliation
• FX exposure and risk
• Building new middle offices processes and moving from manual to more automated procedures

Attribution Search will be targeting a High Performing Operations/Middle Office candidate with exposure and understanding across the areas listed above.  Twinned with said technical understanding, a strong worth ethic and positive approach will be required in order to align with the pace at which the fund will grow and the role will develop.

Typical experience required will include:

• Hedge Fund Operations or Middle Office experience across multiple strategies and asset classes
• Asset class knowledge to include Securities (Equities and Fixed Income) as well more exotic asset classes on both Listed and OTC side
• Experience of working with PM’s Traders and a understanding of fund structures, strategies and investment philioopshy as well as front to back trade flow post execution
• Technical and numerical mindset with an interest in Data and some coding – SQL, Python and Tableau (desirable but not a prerequisite)
• Strong platform/system knowledge such as Markit, Omgeo, Geneva, Traiana
• Russell Group university with STEM degree

 

This role is likely to typically suit a candidate at a Hedge Fund who has maximised most of their opportunity to learn and is now looking for wider asset class coverage, closer contact with the trading desk and to join a fund which has significant plans for growth.   

Given the recent opening of this London office, there is less top heavy management above this seat and little in the way of glass ceiling, giving this role huge opportunity for trajectory and promotion.
