Key Responsibilities: Run and manage a high-frequency trading book, with focus on ETF, futures, or related markets.
Develop, implement, and refine short-term alpha and execution strategies.
Collaborate with researchers and developers to optimise performance and execution.
Adapt and scale strategies to new instruments and markets.
Requirements: Proven success trading ETFs, futures, equities, or options in a prop trading or hedge fund environment (buy-side only).
Hands-on, execution-oriented trading background, not purely research-focused.
Experience running a desk or managing a PnL-driven book.
Programming skills (e.g., Python, C++) are advantageous but not essential.
Strong adaptability, commercial mindset, and ability to operate autonomously.
Open to being based full-time in Geneva, Switzerland. London will also be a future consideration.
