About You

We are looking for someone with around 1–2 years’ experience within fund operations, investment operations, middle office or a similar environment.

You will have a good understanding of the trade lifecycle and some exposure to areas such as settlements, reconciliations, cash management or corporate actions.

Most importantly, you will be bright, analytical and keen to learn, with the confidence to work as part of a small team and take on increasing responsibility as your experience develops.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a high-quality multi-strategy hedge fund where you will gain broad exposure and build a strong foundation across fund operations.
