Quant Systematic Head / Mumbai

Role:-

The fund operates a very team oriented, collaborative environment with a flat structure . They will consider candidates from any asset class . Technically – their quants are all very good coders so they are looking for an all -rounder- someone who is comfortable being a mentor as well as being fully involved in the systematic process.

Your role will involve:-

Managing the large team of  junior quants and programmers (candidate would need to have prior experience managing such individuals).

Interfacing directly with the CIO (e.g. to help develop quant strategies from their internal data ).

Requirements:-

Candidates could come from the buy-side. However, this is not a quant portfolio management role in the first instance (they would not be given a ‘book’ or capital/strategy to manage). Candidates could however be former/existing quant portfolio managers that are interested in taking their career in another direction.

Candidates could also come from the sell-side, e.g. Heads of “Strats”, i.e. quants sitting on an equity trading desk (e.g. on a Central Risk Book desk).

You will ideally be based in Asia already but they are happy to consider candidates globally.

They will pay extremely well for this person and you will work alongside some very strong names in the market . They are happy to meet candidates for an informal , discreet chat also.  If you are interested , please contact Tina Kaul on quants@ekafinance.com.
