About the programme
You will be working in a position designed for high-calibre, highly numerate individuals within our quantitative teams. We value free thinkers, and we have created a fast-paced and meritocratic environment where you will be encouraged to apply your own initiative and challenge conventional wisdom. You will be delivering on the research agenda, in addition to back testing/researching forecasts of asset returns on horizons of hours to years.
We all share a tireless drive for innovation and participants tend to be one of the top students at their university. Previous associates are now involved in creating and optimising our signature systematic trading models.
As a member of our Quantitative Associate Programme you will be part of a select cohort receiving on-the-job training from experienced colleagues who have a matchless record of helping high performing individuals reach their true potential.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
