  • Building models and tools in Python and Excel
  • Analysing competitor indices and market trends
  • Producing documentation (methodologies, specs, fact sheets)
  • Working cross‑functionally with commercial teams and internal stakeholders
We’re Looking For
  • Strong quantitative skill set and Python proficiency
  • Experience in markets such as rates, FX, MM or commodities
  • Background in structuring, QIS, index products or quantitative research
  • Ability to communicate complex concepts clearly and concisely
  • Someone who thrives in a varied, intellectually stimulating environment
