* A prestigious London-based hedge fund are seeking to hire a high-calibre Actuary for a non-traditional role with broad business impact. I’ve previously placed two actuaries with them who have both excelled, and They are now looking for someone with similar strengths to join as a Business Analyst working across Finance, Operations, Trading and, potentially, Risk. This is an internal consulting-style role with real ownership and visibility.
Key points
o Career path: A springboard for high achievers with potential to grow toward CFO/COO over time. This is not an investment decision-making role.
o Core values: Rigour with pragmatism — accuracy and speed both matter.
o Technical scope: Trade analytics, process automation and AI-driven initiatives. Coding (Python/R/SQL) is essential. You’ll work closely with quants and help develop internal AI capabilities.
o Focus areas: AI, Risk and Process Automation.
What They value
o Technical: Strong numeracy, coding ability and attention to detail.
o Soft skills: Energy, initiative, maturity and high standards.
o Culture: Adaptability, problem-solving and enthusiasm for improving systems.
Why consider this
A high-performance environment with exposure across hedge fund operations and the chance to deliver tangible improvements. Top performers progress quickly and gain direct senior leadership exposure.
