Senior Portfolio Manager – Multi-Asset Class & Global Macro Investment Strategies
About the Role
A small, Mayfair-based investment boutique specialising in multi-asset investment strategies across Global Macro Investment Strategies, this firm uses a research-driven, conviction-led approach grounded in macroeconomic insight, disciplined risk management, and operational excellence.
The firm is expanding its investment team in London to welcome an experienced senior Portfolio Manager. The role offers significant responsibility across portfolio construction, active trading, risk management, operational oversight, and strategic development.
