Are you a Quantitative Developer with a passion for commodities and a desire to work directly with traders in a dynamic front-office environment?

This is an opportunity to bridge the gap between software engineering and quantitative development, joining a leading hedge fund to create the tools and models for trading desks.

In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with the commodities traders to design and implement solutions that drive trading performance.

  • From building pricing tools and market analysis platforms to creating risk management systems, your work will directly enhance the efficiency and decision-making of traders.
  • You'll also be tasked with productionising quantitative models, ensuring they are robust, scalable, and seamlessly integrated into front-office workflows.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
