Director - Hybrid Derivatives Quant Modeller

I'm partnering with a leading Front Office Quantitative Analytics team on a Director-level opportunity focused on Hybrid Derivatives.

This is a strategic technical leadership role centred on Hybrid Derivatives and hybrid pricing models, including products where payoffs depend on multiple asset classes (for example Rates/FX, Rates/Equity and Rates/Inflation), as well as pricing models where the payoff relates to a single asset class but the model incorporates multiple asset classes.

Working closely with Front Office Quants, Trading, Quant Development and Model Validation, you'll be responsible for:

\n
• Driving pricing model quality, governance and consistency.
\n
• Reviewing and challenging existing modelling approaches.
\n
• Providing technical leadership across pricing model development and implementation.
\n
• Influencing senior Front Office stakeholders across multiple trading desks.
\n
• Helping shape the future direction of the pricing model framework.
\n

This isn't a traditional people management role. It's about technical leadership, influence and becoming the recognised technical authority for Hybrid Derivatives.

We're looking for candidates with experience in:

\n
• Front Office Quantitative Analytics.
\n
• Pricing model development and ownership.
\n
• Rates, FX, Equity, Hybrid Derivatives or other cross-asset products.
\n
• Hybrid derivatives and/or pricing models incorporating multiple asset classes.
\n
• Structured or exotic derivatives.
\n
• Strong stakeholder management with the confidence to challenge and influence Front Office stakeholders.
\n

Python is preferred, although candidates with a strong modelling background in another language will also be considered. C++ is beneficial but not essential.

If you'd like to hear more, please get in touch for a confidential discussion.
