From Marshall Wace's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
You will be working in a position designed for high-calibre, highly numerate individuals within our quantitative teams. We value free thinkers, and we have created a fast-paced and meritocratic environment where you will be encouraged to apply your own initiative and challenge conventional wisdom. You will be delivering on the research agenda, in addition to back testing/researching forecasts of asset returns on horizons of hours to years.
We all share a tireless drive for innovation and participants tend to be one of the top students at their university. Previous associates are now involved in creating and optimising our signature systematic trading models.
As a member of our Quantitative Associate Programme you will be part of a select cohort receiving on the job training from experienced colleagues who have a matchless record of helping high performing individuals reach their true potential.
Quant Research
You will research, develop, and refine the predictive signals and models that drive our investment strategies — turning data into alpha. The work spans statistical modelling, machine learning, large-scale data analysis, and signal research: sourcing and exploring novel datasets, designing and validating trading signals, rigorously backtesting hypotheses against real market conditions, and collaborating with portfolio managers to bring the strongest ideas into production.
This is an intellectually demanding role where you will push the boundaries of what our models can capture and continually sharpen our competitive advantage.
