Location: London (On-site/Hybrid)
The Mandate
We are partnering with a global multi-strategy firm in London seeking a Portfolio Manager to run a specialized Macro Rates Relative Value book. This mandate sits at the intersection of fundamental macroeconomic themes and highly precise RV trade construction. This is explicitly not a cross-asset macro seat; the focus is strictly on Developed Market (DM) Rates. The desk strongly prefers a semi-systematic, process-driven approach over purely discretionary risk-taking.
The Hard Questions (What You Will Solve)
- The Implementation Gap: How do you translate a high-conviction fundamental macroeconomic theme (e.g., central bank divergence) into a tightly constructed, market-neutral RV trade that minimizes directional beta?
- Process Codification: How do you build quantitative overlays and systematic entry/exit frameworks to remove behavioural drag from your fundamental macro views?
- Curve Dynamics: How do you systematically exploit term-structure anomalies and fly pricing across sovereign curves while managing the negative convexity of the underlying instruments?
The Structural Edge
- Tier-1 Balance Sheet: You are backed by the institutional capital required to warehouse complex, margin-intensive RV structures that smaller funds simply cannot afford to carry.
- Quant-amental Infrastructure: Access to an elite centralized data platform that provides real-time macroeconomic data, central bank sentiment scraping, and tick-level pricing to support your semi-systematic process.
Ideal Profile
- The Metric: 8+ years of verifiable live PnL in DM Rates RV. A demonstrable track record of maintaining a Sharpe ≥ 1.5 through rigorous risk management.
- The Tech: You are not a pure quant, but you are highly literate in Python/SQL. You build your own pricing models, backtest your themes, and size your risk programmatically.
Compensation & Preferences
- Non-compete: Preference for ≤12 months; buyouts considered for exceptional profiles.
- Compensation: $250k–$350k + Formulaic PnL Cut (This is not a guarantee of compensation or salary; a final offer amount may vary based on factors including but not limited to experience, domain expertise, and geographic location.)
