Quantitative Finance Researcher (Part-Time)
Quality | Empathy | Integrity
These are the core values of Quaxitas as a business, and of the people within it. We are a leading boutique search firm working globally with buy-side hedge funds and trading firms. We have built a reputation for having a positive impact on everybody we meet, and in building genuine human connections. We seek to remove sales-based and volume-driven approaches within the recruitment industry and believe vehemently in people first – above everything else.
We are opportunistically hiring Part-Time Researchers for our London office. We are looking for people-driven, committed individuals to join our stellar team. We are very fortunate to have attracted conscientious, intelligent individuals, and believe that if we build a company based on strong values with a dedicated team, we can achieve anything. We also operate culturally like a think-tank, sharing ideas and revelling in a community of like-minded, interesting people. We will always keep this start-up culture – and as always, people first.
We are currently looking for future leaders; for self-starters who are keen to help build a business, problem-solve, and who care about helping people and producing quality-driven work. There are many sales and volume driven bad actors within the industry, and we differentiate ourselves by standing strictly in opposition against that. We are looking for driven individuals to join our community, and if this excites you, having learnt more about us, we would love to speak to you!
