Your work directly shapes how the front office performs, and you own the technology that makes it happen. This is a fund that blends discretionary and systematic trading. Quant and human judgement sit side by side here, and the technology function sits right at the heart of that. You are not supporting the front office from a distance. You are embedded in it.
The fund is actively launching new strategies, giving you ownership of real technology delivery as new funds come to life, with deep and growing exposure to trading. You'll be spending your time building and evolving front office systems, working closely with traders and quants to understand what they need and then delivering it. You drive the technology decisions, you own the roadmap, and you see the results of your work reflected directly in performance.
Strong C#, Python and SQL knowledge is essential. You are comfortable working at the intersection of technology and trading, and you want to be somewhere your decisions actually matter. You'll be successful here if you've got a track record of supporting similar front office systems/environments.
Compensation is up to £300,000 total, with a strong bonus tied to both your personal contribution and fund performance. As the fund grows and new strategies launch, the trajectory on that only goes one way.
The role is fully in office, which is where the real conversations happen and where you stay close to the people and strategies you are supporting.
