Join a fast-growing, independent investment boutique specialising in liquid alternatives, now ~1 year into its journey.

This is a front-office aligned role, working closely with the PM and offering direct exposure to investment decisions, fund activity, and strategy development from day one.

A broad, hands-on position supporting both the day-to-day running of the fund and ongoing systems / infrastructure build-out. You’ll combine quantitative thinking with practical execution, gaining real investment exposure early.

  • Support fund operations (valuations, fees, processes)

  • Work with internal & external stakeholders
  • Support the PM across structured products & cross-asset strategies
  • Contribute analytically (non-heavy modelling)

Your Background

  • Finance experience preferred, but open to quantitative / technical backgrounds
  • Strong maths / statistics foundation
  • Highly organised, logical thinker
  • Strong communication skills
  • Technical skills (Python / data / systems) beneficial

What They’re Looking For

  • Practical, hands-on mindset (not purely theoretical)
  • Curious and motivated to learn
  • Comfortable across ops, tech, and investments
  • Interested in building a long-term career in asset management

Why Join

  • Work directly with an experienced PM (cross-asset / quant)
  • Join a fund early in its growth phase
  • Exposure across investment, operations, and technology
  • Clear path toward a broader investment / PM role

Compensation
£50k – £80k base


Ideal for a numerate, driven junior looking for real responsibility and exposure within a growing fund.
