Do you want to build models that actually get used in the real world?
Have you ever applied your maths to beat complex, high-stakes prediction problems?
Are you ready to join a high-performing team trading in global sports markets?
Join a City-based investment firm using advanced statistics and data science to model sporting outcomes. With a lean team and flat structure, you’ll own your work end-to-end — from research through to production — in an environment that values rigour, creativity, and impact.

* Work cross-functionally with trading and software teams
* Deploy models that directly inform trading decisions globally
What They're Looking For
* MSc or PhD in a quantitative/STEM field (Maths, Stats, Physics, Engineering)
* 5–10 years’ experience in data/quant-focused roles
* Strong coding in Python (R and MATLAB welcome; C# desirable)
* Solid understanding of statistics and probability
* Professional experience working with messy, real-world datasets
* Interest in sports (trading background not required)
Key Details
