Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

    What we're looking for:
    Extensive knowledge of Volatility Trading and Market Microstructure in Cash Equities and Equities Derivatives

    Proven experience with low latency C++ programming and high frequency algorithimic trading solutions for derivatives trading desks

    Mastery of best practices in software development lifecycle, and operational risk management

    Skills that will help you in the role:

    Msc or Phd in Mathematics, Computer Science, Statistics or other quantitative domain

    Experience of volatility pricing and risk and of data analysis using Python, R or Julia

    Experience of machine learning and optimization theory
