Equity Statistical Arbitrage Portfolio Manager

Location: London, Geneva or New York

Company: $20b+ AUM Hedge Fund

Venture Search is partnering with a leading global hedge fund with $20bn+ AUM to identify an exceptional Equity Statistical Arbitrage Portfolio Manager to join its expanding quantitative investment platform.

The firm is one of the most established names in global macro and multi-strategy investing, with a sophisticated institutional infrastructure spanning multiple asset classes, geographies and investment styles. Its continued investment in systematic and quantitative strategies creates an opportunity for an experienced PM to bring differentiated equity stat arb expertise into a highly capitalised platform.

This is a genuine Portfolio Manager mandate, with the autonomy and resources to develop, run and scale a systematic equity strategy. The firm is particularly interested in established PMs with a strong, demonstrable track record in Equity Statistical Arbitrage and a differentiated source of alpha.

The Opportunity

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.
