London, United Kingdom Caxton Associates Full time

Company Overview:

Caxton Associates, founded in 1983, is a global trading and investment firm with offices in London, New York, Monaco, Singapore, and Dubai. Caxton Associates’ primary business is to manage client and proprietary capital through multiple liquid global hedge fund disciplines, including discretionary macro, systematic macro, emerging markets macro, systematic trading, equity long-short, and event-driven strategies. Assets are managed via a broad mandate to trade in a variety of global markets and instruments with a focus on alpha generation for our clients.

Requirements

The Role:

Caxton Associates is seeking experienced Portfolio Managers specializing in Systematic Macro strategies. In this pivotal role, you will be entrusted with managing a significant capital allocation and overseeing rigorous risk management across all active positions.

In our organization, we place a high value on collaboration, promoting regular and ongoing discussions about global macroeconomic trends, geopolitical developments, and the evolution of financial markets. Professionals who can extract key insights from their investment universe to inform and shape the broader team's perspective and leverage this collective knowledge to generate alpha within their mandate will find this is the perfect platform for their talents.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Independently manage a significant capital allocation by creating, executing, and monitoring a Systematic Macro strategy.
  • Construct portfolios based on robust data-driven trading strategies that are uncorrelated with traditional capital markets and CTA strategies.
  • Conduct thorough research and back testing of trading strategies, applying ingenuity and creativity to identify new sources of alpha.
  • Utilize stringent volatility control frameworks and combine multiple sources of alpha.
  • Collaborate effectively within a global team environment, learning from and adding value to collective insights and expertise.
  • Ensure strict compliance with all industry rules, regulations, and internal company policies.

Requirements:

  • Proven track record in Systematic Macro, demonstrated by robust investment acumen and a Sharpe Ratio greater than 1.5.
  • A minimum of 5 years of experience in portfolio management, preferably within a hedge fund.
  • Proficiency in programming skills, advanced quantitative methods for analysing large data sets and pattern identification, as well as portfolio construction methodologies.
  • Demonstrated expertise in macro product sets including futures, FX, and swaps, with the ability to build a front-to-back systematic investment framework with minimal regular human intervention.
  • Humility and the capacity to thrive in a highly collaborative global team, with a strong desire to learn from and alongside other investors.
  • Unwavering commitment to the highest standards of ethics and integrity.
  • Exceptional decision-making abilities, capable of performing well under pressure.

Application Instructions:

To apply, please submit your CV, a detailed account of your investment track record (including evidence of a Sharpe Ratio greater than 1.5), and a comprehensive outline of your proposed investment strategy and process. If you're an experienced portfolio manager with a passion for collaboration and a keen interest in financial markets, we'd love to connect with you.
