Our client is a global macro hedge fund looking to hire an experienced Execution Trader to join its London based investment team to cover rates, fx, and credit.
The firm invests across global fixed income, currencies, credit and related derivative markets, with a particular focus on macro and emerging market opportunities.
The role sits within a small, highly regarded trading team and offers close interaction with portfolio managers, analysts and senior investment professionals.
This is a broad execution role suited to someone with strong product knowledge, excellent market awareness and the ability to build trusted relationships across the Street.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute trades across fixed income, FX, credit and derivative products.
- Work closely with portfolio managers to implement investment ideas efficiently.
- Provide market colour, liquidity insight and execution guidance to the investment team.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with banks, brokers and other counterparties.
- Assess market depth, pricing, liquidity and execution risk.
- Help minimise market impact when trading in size or in less liquid markets.
- Contribute to discussions around trade implementation, market structure and counterparty selection.
- Support the continued development of the firm's execution process and trading relationships.
- Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate will likely come from a trading, market-making, sales-trading, sales, or execution background within a leading investment bank, hedge fund or asset manager.
Experience across rates, FX or credit would be highly relevant.
Emerging markets experience would be helpful, but is not essential if the candidate has strong broader macro or fixed income product expertise.
The role would suit someone who enjoys being close to the investment process, understands how to source liquidity and execute effectively, and wants to build a long-term career in a senior buy-side execution seat.
Requirements
- Significant experience in trading, execution, market-making or sales-trading.
- Strong understanding of fixed income, FX, credit or derivative markets.
- Good knowledge of market structure, liquidity and execution strategy.
- Ability to communicate clearly with portfolio managers and senior stakeholders.
- Strong external relationships across banks, brokers or liquidity providers.
This is an exceptional opportunity with a leading hedge fund in the space.
