Excellent ideas come from anyone, anywhere. Employees are encouraged to challenge conventional thinking and possess an attitude of continuous improvement.

Our goal is to hire the best and the brightest. We value intellectual horsepower first and foremost, and people who demonstrate an outstanding talent. There is no roadmap to future success, so we need people who can help us build it.

  • The Book Portfolio Manager Opportunity :

  • Transparent and formula-based compensation
  • Opportunities to contribute to other research and strategy initiatives
  • Access to WorldQuant's alpha pool, portfolio management tools and innovative technology platforms
  • Access to a deep and broad menu of datasets supported by a dedicated data team
  • Cross-asset execution led by a multi-regional trading team
  • Participation in internal research conferences and forums
  • Autonomy to build your own strategies along with several opportunities for collaboration and mentorship
  • Access to AI and Machine Learning opportunities applied to financial markets
