CONFIDENTIAL PORTFOLIO MANAGER OPPORTUNITY

Established Proprietary Trading Platform

We are conducting a confidential search for an established proprietary trading organization seeking experienced Portfolio Managers with a proven ability to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns.

The firm provides substantial proprietary capital, sophisticated trading resources, strong quantitative and technical support, and an environment designed for experienced traders who want meaningful ownership of their strategies.

This is an opportunity for a successful Portfolio Manager to operate with significant autonomy while benefiting from the infrastructure, capital, data, technology, and support of an established institutional platform.
 

THE OPPORTUNITY

The Portfolio Manager will assume responsibility for a dedicated trading mandate and have meaningful control over strategy development, portfolio construction, execution, and ongoing risk management.

The firm is specifically interested in experienced traders who have developed a repeatable edge and can clearly demonstrate how that edge has translated into live trading performance.

Successful Portfolio Managers are given the resources and flexibility necessary to expand their strategies and capital allocation as performance develops.

The environment is entrepreneurial, performance-oriented, and intentionally designed to allow experienced traders to focus on producing results rather than navigating unnecessary organizational complexity.
