This position is designed as an entry point into a full recruitment career. As you gain market knowledge and confidence, you will progressively take ownership of candidate outreach and eventually conduct conversations with senior quantitative professionals.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Highly driven, ambitious, and eager to learn.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, target-driven environment.
  • Comfortable engaging with senior professionals as the role develops.
  • Previous research, recruitment, sales, finance, or market intelligence experience is advantageous but not essential.


What We Offer

  • Comprehensive training on quantitative trading markets and recruitment.
  • Direct exposure to leading global hedge funds and trading firms.
  • Clear career progression into a full recruitment consultant position.
  • Opportunity to develop commercial and relationship-management skills.
  • Competitive base salary and performance-based incentives.
