We've been mandated exclusively to source capital-allocated portfolio managers for a proprietary trading firm building a systematic platform.
This is not employment — it's a capital partnership.
You'll trade the firm's capital in their accounts, under their risk framework, with quarterly distributions. The firm handles operations, risk management, and infrastructure. You focus on what you do best: trading.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 10+ years of live trading experience (20+ preferred)
- Pod-trained background from systematic shops: hedge funds or prop trading houses
- Audited, live P&L — not backtests, simulations, or pro-forma results
- Systematic macro trader — capital-efficient trading across FX, global futures, crypto, intraday/short-term timeframes
- Clean IP ownership — signal library and execution stack are yours (or portable)
- Genuinely portable edge — your strategy works on your terms, not dependent on your current employer's leverage or risk framework
- Open to an allocated book model — not looking to raise your own AUM or manage external investors
- You can work remotely not a problem anywhere globally
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.
WHAT MAKES YOU A FIT
- Attributable personal P&L (not a team's desk, not co-managed)
- Systematic and repeatable edge, not discretionary
- Track record across multiple market cycles
- Comfortable operating under capital-constrained trading and institutional risk frameworks
- Open to scaling capital on a platform, not solely focused on raising external AUM
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
THE STRUCTURE
- Capital: $10–50M initial allocation, with scope to scale for exceptional strategies
- P&L Participation: 40% of attributable P&L, after direct costs (capital charge, brokerage, exchange fees, data, strategy-specific infrastructure)
- Distributions: Quarterly
- Capital Charge: Annual charge on committed capital — a direct cost, deducted before the profit pool
- Full economics, including a worked example, shared once we've had an initial conversation.
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU
- Your track record (monthly returns, net Sharpe ratio, max drawdown, current AUM)
- Strategy overview (asset classes, timeframes, edge type)
- Current situation and timeline (when could you start trading live capital?)
