Quantitative Analyst

Referment is working with a global investment and technology firm to find a quantitative analyst for its systematic trading research. This role combines mathematical modelling, software development and empirical market research, giving you responsibility for turning ideas into strategies that can be tested against real-world data.
You will work on problems where better signals, lower risk and more efficient execution all matter. The remit is suited to someone who enjoys moving between theory, code and evidence rather than treating them as separate disciplines.
The Role
Use financial data to investigate opportunities to improve profitability, manage risk and reduce transaction costs.
Develop statistical models and translate research ideas into systematic trading strategies.
Test strategies critically, separating durable results from noise and understanding how they behave under different market conditions.
Write software that supports research, analysis and implementation.
What We're Looking For
A strong academic record in mathematics, statistics, physics, engineering, computer science or another highly quantitative discipline.
Excellent analytical reasoning and the ability to express quantitative ideas precisely.
Programming ability and an interest in applying mathematical methods to financial markets.
Curiosity, creativity and the discipline to evaluate your own hypotheses rigorously.
This could suit a recent graduate or early-career researcher with exceptional quantitative foundations who wants to work across modelling, coding and systematic investing.
