Quantitative Business Strategist - HFT Prop Firm

Full-time

Fionics

We're hiring for one of the most established HFT prop firms in the US. They're adding a business strategist to the team that grows new trading desks and develops the firm's next generation of talent.

This is a business role inside a trading firm. You'll help decide where the firm grows next and how new teams get set up to succeed.

What you'll do

  • Analyse the performance of desks and new trading teams, and turn the numbers into clear recommendations
  • Help assess and set up new trading pods, from first conversations to launch
  • Support the firm's talent program for high-potential researchers and traders
  • Work directly with senior leadership on firm-wide projects

What they're looking for

  • 2–5 years at a top strategy consulting firm, or in a strategy role in finance or tech
  • Strong numbers skills. You're comfortable with data, and Python or SQL is a plus
  • Clear, structured thinking and the confidence to work with senior traders
  • Genuine interest in trading and markets. No trading experience needed

Why it's worth a look

  • A rare route into a top trading firm from a consulting background
  • High visibility across the whole business from day one
  • A small team with real influence on where the firm goes next

Apply here or message me directly. All conversations are confidential.
