Emerging Market Credit - Investment Professional
Investment Professional, Emerging Markets Corporate Credit
The Opportunity
A rare opening has arisen within a highly regarded global hedge fund to join an exceptional credit portfolio management team in London. This is a senior buy-side seat for an accomplished analyst or portfolio manager with deep conviction in EM corporate credit across the full spectrum of investment grade, high yield and special situations.
The fund manages multi-billion dollar strategies across global fixed income and credit with an established and growing allocation to emerging markets debt. This London-based credit team operates with genuine autonomy, rigorous fundamental discipline, and a collaborative culture that punches well above its size.
The Role
Reporting into senior portfolio management, the Director will take primary ownership of a broad corporate credit coverage universe spanning CEEMEA, LatAm and APAC across both investment grade and high yield issuers.
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.
