The Firm

Capula Investment Management is a leading global quantitative hedge fund managing over $30 billion in assets. We are headquartered in London and have offices in New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Geneva and Abu Dhabi. We manage absolute return, enhanced fixed income, macro and alpha strategies for a diversified group of investors worldwide. Capula invests in a broad universe of asset classes, including fixed income, equities, currencies and commodities, as well as derivatives related to these asset classes.

The Role

The Risk Analyst role at Capula offers a unique opportunity for recent graduates to develop their career in finance and risk management. As a Risk Analyst, you will work alongside experienced professionals and gain exposure to various risk functions and strategies within the firm.

You will join the Risk Engineering function, which is responsible for risk modelling, performance analytics, risk reporting, controls and related infrastructure. We are largely a python & SQL team, with a range of BAU and “build-the-fund” project work, covering everything from core infrastructure to deep dive technical analyses across the products and markets that the firm trades. We work in conjunction with the wider risk team on the trading floor. The successful candidate will develop significant expertise in the products, trading strategies and associated market risks across fixed income, equities and global macro businesses.

This is an excellent opportunity for a graduate or an individual with 0-2 year's experience in risk, trading or quantitative analysis to gain exposure to hedge fund risk management.
