- Evaluating sustainability data, developing proprietary datasets and ensuring their quality and robustness.
- Working closely with investment, research and technology teams to translate quantitative research into actionable investment insights .
I’m keen to speak with candidates who have:
- A PhD in a quantitative discipline . Master’s-level candidates and other strong academic backgrounds may also be considered.
- Strong Python programming, quantitative modelling and data analysis skills.
- Around 5–10+ years’ quantitative experience working with ESG, sustainability, climate, emissions, transition risk, biodiversity or nature-related datasets.
