I’m supporting our Investment Banking client based in Singapore who have headcount for a VP level quant to join their established front-office Structured Rates Quant team.
This a VP level role, hired ahead of continued growth, with direct responsibility for pricing, risk, and model development across rates exotics, working closely with trading and sales. The team has expanded steadily and is now adding further exotics expertise to support increasing business demand.
Key highlights:
Genuine front-office role with real trading impact
Focus on structured & exotic rates modelling (not linear-only)
Senior ownership across pricing, risk, and model development
Global search – candidates can be based anywhere
Ideally somebody already based in Singapore but relocation to Singapore and visa sponsorhip may be supported for a standout candidate.
Ideally 6–10 years’ experience, with strong emphasis on long-term commitment to Singapore
What they’re looking for:
Proven front-office Rates Exotics Quant experience
Strong production-level C++ and Python
Deep expertise in IR options, exotics and structured products
Strong numerical methods (Monte Carlo, PDEs, calibration, optimisation)
Technically excellent, commercially aware, collaborative
Comfortable partnering closely with trading and sales with the ability to influence
