Corporate Credit Analyst - Proprietary Trading Firm

Job description

This is an early-in opportunity on a new and growing desk. Rather than stepping into a rigid structure, you’ll be joining at a point where you can genuinely help shape how the desk develops.

This is a proprietary trading firm with a global footprint, and they are expanding their fixed income operation out of London.

You’ll be working directly alongside a trader, with real input, real visibility, and a role that will grow as the desk does. If you want ownership over your coverage and the chance to have an immediate impact, this is the kind of environment that gives you that.

You’re coming from a buyside environment and are already used to working closely with traders or portfolio managers. You’ll need to be comfortable in a fast-moving fixed income setting, able to communicate clearly, and confident operating at pace.

Your background is in credit research, with experience covering high yield corporate bonds and a strong grasp of credit analysis.

What will set you apart is the ability to react quickly to breaking news, think ahead around future events, and identify opportunities others may be missing - whether by uncovering new information or looking at familiar situations from a different angle. Embedded on a strategy-focused trading desk, the analysis you produce will have a direct impact on trading decisions.

Salary is open at this stage.

Healthcare and pension benefits are included. The office is in London and this is a fully in-office role.

If this sounds like the right kind of move, get in touch. No up-to-date CV required.
