Job Description

We make wide ranging investments, including stocks, bonds, funds, private investments, and hedging derivatives. Our approach is empirical and structured (but flexible) and, increasingly, data driven.

We look for potential, so we are open minded about your professional and academic background (subject to the requirements mentioned below), and we are able to sponsor successful candidates who require a Skilled Worker Visa (and hence a Bachelor’s degree is a requirement). All candidates must be available to work primarily in person in our office in London.

Our Operations team seeks a recent graduate so we can continue to build a robust and flexible system for control and reporting to empower our Research team and adjust quickly to our investors’ needs. Our Operations team is recruited and trained to the same high standards as our Research team. We apply focus and purpose during the work day to build the control architecture for our investment management business.

After learning our processes and our proprietary automated Portfolio Management System, you will:

• Take primary responsibility for day-to-day financial control over our investments, and reporting of their performance
• Strengthen and further automate our processes
• Shape the development of Okris with our Operations and Software teams

As you develop, there is scope for your involvement to broaden into:

• Additional reporting to our Investors
• Cost management and analysis
• Counterparty management
• Performance analysis
• Regulatory compliance

We will train you to be a rounded finance professional who can:

• Understand how Financial Instruments work
• Develop robust and efficient processes
• Apply financial analysis skills to investigate and resolve business issues
• Understand how Financial Instruments work
• Use SQL to analyze data from our Portfolio Management System

We will support you through any qualifications that are relevant to your job (for example qualifying as a Chartered Accountant)
