Senior Python Quantitative Developer - Core Investment Platform - Quant Hedge Fund

Overview

A globally recognised hedge fund is expanding its systematic and mid-frequency equities platform in London, adding experienced Portfolio Managers to one of the most established and well-capitalised environments in the industry. This is an opportunity to join a firm known for institutional rigour, intellectual depth and long-term thinking, while still offering the autonomy and entrepreneurial freedom to build scalable mid-frequency or semi-systematic equities strategies.

What sets this platform apart

  • Capital and risk parameters are tailored to each PM’s approach, not the other way around
  • Backed by a deep bench of quant, data science, risk and execution specialists
  • Robust operational, legal and compliance infrastructure across global markets
  • Culture that values collaboration over churn, and innovation over conformity

Strategies of interest

  • Mid-frequency statistical arbitrage (multi-day to multi-week alpha signals)

Ideal profile

  • 5–10+ years of independently running profitable mid-frequency or semi-systematic equities strategies
  • Track record of Sharpe >2.0 and annual PnL generation of $10m+ on capital of $250m+
  • Strong research, modelling and execution capabilities
  • A collaborative mindset and desire to scale sustainably

This is a chance to build and compound a strategy in a stable, long-term home — not a short-term plug-and-play seat in a pod shop.

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.
