Verity Capital is a fast-growing, FCA-regulated multi-family office based in Marylebone. This is a senior, hands‑on role at the centre of everything we do — working directly with the Founding Partner/CIO across investment operations, data infrastructure and client delivery.
The role is broad by design. You will be the operational backbone of the investment process, ensuring the firm runs with precision and scalability. For the right candidate, there is a genuine path towards portfolio management responsibilities (if suitable). You will be as comfortable writing Python as you are executing a bond trade or preparing a client performance report.
You will be expected to identify problems, build solutions, and own outcomes end‑to‑end.
This is an office‑based role at our Marylebone headquarters. We are a small, high‑intensity team and we work best together in person.
