About the Role

The Position

We are currently seeking to recruit a Sovereign Strategist to join our Emerging Markets Debt (EMD) team.

Located in London, this individual will be primarily responsible for covering sovereign debt issuers, and for analyzing selected emerging markets, across Central and Eastern Europe.

This role will include macro analysis and forecasting, assessing political developments and governance trends, and assessing debt sustainability and local market drivers.

As an active member of the EMD team, the Sovereign Strategist will be fully integrated into the investment process, and will be expected to provide investment recommendations on both external and local debt, while also communicating (in writing and verbally) with a broader group of Fixed Income and Equity investment professionals across the firm.

Consistent with the countries in the emerging markets universe, coverage will include both investment grade and below investment grade issuers.

Essential Skills

The following essential skills are required for the role:
Other Qualifications

Have a strong academic background, including an advanced degree (Masters or PhD) in Economics or International Finance;
Have 5+ years of relevant Emerging Markets research experience, including experience of covering the CEEMEA region.

Prior experience working for a multilateral agency or international financial institution (e.g. IMF, World Bank, central bank) would be viewed favorably;
Demonstrate the ability to employ quantitative modeling and research skills to assist in economic and market analysis;
Have excellent interpersonal skills;
Demonstrate the ability to work well in a small, collaborative team, while also communicating and interacting with a broader group of investment professionals;
