    Description

    Quant Researcher (Equities Stat Arb) | London (On-site) | Visa Sponsorship AvailableA high-performing, research-led, collaborative , equities stat arb team in London is hiring a Quant Researcher to drive alpha and signal generation. This is a rare chance to join a lean pod where researchers have real ownership, strong engineering support around them, and a clear mandate across cash equities.

    Scope

    Research, design, and validate alpha signals for cash equities stat arb strategies

    Build robust feature sets from market, fundamental, and alternative datasets

    Run disciplined backtesting and statistical validation to avoid overfitting

    Translate research into production-ready signals in collaboration with engineering

    Monitor live performance and iterate on signals as market regimes shift

    Contribute to idea generation and the team's evolving research framework

    Ideal profile

    2 to 5 years of experience in systematic equity research.

    Strong statistical intuition and a rigorous research process (hypothesis, testing, validation)

    Solid programming skills (Python required; familiarity with research-to-production workflows is a plus)

    Experience working with equities data and market microstructure awareness preferred

    Candidates from prop trading environments are interesting, but top long-only / fundamental researchers with a systematic mindset are also of interest.

    Comfort working in a small, high-accountability team where your work has visible impact

    Nice to have

    Single-stock research exposure with a clear, testable signal mindset

    Experience with factor research, statistical arbitrage, or systematic equities strategies

    Familiarity with portfolio construction concepts and risk-aware signal developmentLogistics

    London-based role, on-site

    No remote / overseas-based working

    Hiring timeline: next 1 to 2 months

    If you're a mid-level researcher who wants genuine signal ownership and a direct line between your work and PnL, this is the kind of seat that doesn't come up often.
