Role Overview
We are working with a highly profitable boutique hedge fund which has had positive annual returns since inception. They are looking to hire a fund controller to report directly into the COO.
This is a great opportunity for someone to gain exposure across all areas of a hedge fund whilst sitting amongst the portfolio managers. You will learn about the trading strategies of the fund, rationales for decisions and be part of the overall fund success.
Responsibilities
The role will report directly into the COO and cover the fund accounting and operations. They outsource a large portion of the fund accounting, and have a junior in the team, so this will manage this relationship, review their work and then spend time doing performance analysis with commentaries, preparing reports and distributing across the team. On a daily basis, this role will be responsible for producing the NAVs, managing any currency hedging, and treasury management. The BAU work will take around 75% of your time, the rest of your time will focus on projects for example creating performance related dashboards or automating processes.
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.
