Singapore Squarepoint Capital Full time

At Squarepoint Capital, we leverage a diversified portfolio of systematic and quantitative strategies to deliver high-quality, uncorrelated returns for our clients.

We possess deep expertise in trading, technology, and operations, which contributes to our success. As a technology and data-driven firm, we design and build our own cutting-edge systems, including high-performance trading platforms and large-scale data analysis and compute farms.

With offices around the world, we prioritize true global collaboration by aligning our investment, technology, and operations teams functionally worldwide. Building on our quantitative research platform and process-driven approach, Squarepoint Capital also runs discretionary strategies to augment our systematic approach and capitalize on opportunities that may not be suitable for systematic trading.

As a Senior Discretionary Trader, you will join an elite global team responsible for developing and executing discretionary and semi-systematic strategies. This presents a unique opportunity to expand and further develop Squarepoint Capital's discretionary trading business. As a member of our team, you will identify, evaluate, and implement new trading opportunities, working closely with Quantitative Researchers and other Discretionary Traders while leveraging our world-class research platform.

We currently run discretionary strategies across Equities, Commodities, Rates/FX, Credit, and Volatility across all asset classes.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop and implement discretionary trading strategies
  • Maintain open communication with trading and risk management to ensure understanding of trading strategies and associated risks
  • Collaborate with traders, analysts, and quantitative researchers globally
  • Contribute to the advancement of analytical tools
  • Leverage internal data and research tools as well as external research and relationships
  • Train and develop junior discretionary traders
Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in a quantitative or related field, with an advanced degree being preferred
  • 3+ years of proven trading experience in a buy-side or sell-side capacity
  • A track record of successfully building and managing trading strategies
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with teammates globally
  • A strong sense of urgency with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
Compensation and Benefits:

The estimated minimum base salary for this role is $60,000, based on current market information and assuming a location in New York. This position may also be eligible for discretionary bonuses, which could constitute a significant portion of total compensation, as well as benefits such as health, dental, and wellness plans, and 401(k) contributions. Successful candidates' compensation and benefits will be determined based on various factors.
