Caxton Associates’ primary business is to manage client and proprietary capital through multiple global hedge fund disciplines, including discretionary macro, systematic macro, emerging markets macro, systematic trading, equity long-short, and event-driven strategies. Assets are managed via a broad mandate to trade in a variety of global markets and instruments with a focus on alpha generation for our clients.
Requirements
At Caxton Associates, we have a longstanding tradition of nurturing premier investment talent. Our commitment to professional development led to the creation of the comprehensive two-year Associate Portfolio Manager (APM) Program in 2012. This program is an exceptional pathway for high-potential buy-side investors, outstanding sell-side trading talent, or world-class quantitative analysts across a spectrum of hedge fund disciplines, including discretionary macro, systematic macro, emerging markets macro, systematic trading, equity long-short, and event-driven strategies.
The APM Program offers immersive exposure and intensive training, refining participant's investment skills with the ultimate objective of enabling advancement to a senior Portfolio Manager position within Caxton. Over a quarter of our current Portfolio Managers, many of whom are now our most respected PMs, have risen through this very program, underscoring its success.
We are currently seeking candidates with a level of experience between 3 to 10 years in either asset management, hedge funds and/or market making. The ideal candidate should have expertise in, and ideally direct experience implementing, the proposed investment strategy and related markets. We appreciate entrepreneurial risk-takers with a desire to build and grow their investment strategy. The ability to work both independently and collaboratively with various stakeholders is crucial, as is a demonstrated capacity for continuous growth and evolution.
If you harbor an unwavering passion for the financial markets, possess a strong work ethic, and meet the above criteria, we invite you to apply. Please submit your CV, investment track record (if available), and a detailed outline of your proposed investment strategy. A comprehensive strategy outline is a critical component of your application.
We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to explore your potential and welcome your contribution to the continuing legacy of Caxton.
