The Internship Programme:

Each year we hire a small cohort of highly motivated and intellectually curious students who are interested in pursuing a career in trading to join our Summer Internship Programme. We hire interns our global offices in London, New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work with some of the industry's best traders who have a strong, proven track record. Interns are embedded within a specific team and will gain direct experience of working with portfolio managers and traders, develop quantitative strategies and models that will contribute to real trading decisions.

The internship runs for ten weeks from June to August. At the start of the internship, you will join us at our London headquarters for Intern Orientation Week, where you will participate in training and activities that will help prepare you with the skills and knowledge to excel in the internship. This includes:

• Training on financial markets;
• Trading Simulation game;
• Presentations from senior stakeholders and managers of front office and support teams; and
• Social and networking activities, including an intern dinner with Senior Portfolio Managers

Your responsibilities as an intern will include:

• Receiving and participating in training in financial modelling, analysis, research methods and trading strategies;
• Evaluating market conditions and economic data analysis;
• Assisting in developing research ideas to support the desk's trading strategies; and
