Quant Researcher – Systematic Equities | Buy-side
Direct message the job poster from Barclay Simpson
We’re partnered with a global investment management firm that has one of the largest quantitative investment teams in the industry. They’re expanding their next-generation systematic equities group, focusing on Equity L/S, Mid-Frequency, Stat-Arb, and Systematic Equity Strategies.
Typical Target Profiles:
- Junior: 2–3 years’ experience or equivalent PhD-level exposure
- Mid-Level: 5–10 years, ideally with multi-asset experience
They're also open to non-traditional quant backgrounds
, including algorithmic execution and market microstructure, as these bring valuable implementation insight.
Candidates who understand both signal generation + execution dynamics stand out.
This environment suits people who thrive on collaboration, deep research, autonomy, and measured creativity
, supported by world-class data, technology, and teammates.
If you're exploring next-gen systematic opportunities, I'd love to connect.
