As a core member of the FX Electronic Trading quant team in London, this role sits at the heart of our electronic market making and algorithmic execution business — not on the periphery. The successful candidate will be someone who thrives on building, enjoys coding as a craft, and is energised by challenging the status quo. This is a senior associate to junior VP-level position for a hands-on quantitative professional who takes end-to-end ownership of meaningful deliverables, works closely with trading and sales partners, and contributes to a team where every member bears full responsibility for the quality and performance of our models and strategies. ### Key Responsibilities Be a core contributor in designing and building automated analytical frameworks to monitor, evaluate, and improve the performance of our FX electronic trading and algorithmic execution strategies - Act as a first line of defence in identifying, diagnosing, and resolving issues with models and strategies — proactively surfacing insights before they become problems - Work closely with sales and trading partners in London and globally to gather structured feedback on model and strategy performance, translating qualitative desk intuition into quantitative improvements - Collaborate with fellow quant team members on research initiatives spanning electronic market making, execution algorithms, and transaction cost analysis Challenge existing approaches — bring fresh perspectives, propose improvements, and drive iterative development of our quantitative toolkit - Write clean, well-structured, production-quality code as a natural part of your daily workflow, not as an afterthought ### Qualifications & Experience Required Relevant prior of experience in a quantitative modelling, analytics, or electronic trading role, ideally within financial markets - Strong programming skills — Python is essential; Java or C++ exposure is a plus - Solid grounding in statistics and probability, with genuine intuition for applying these to real trading problems (e.g. signal analysis, performance attribution, execution quality measurement) - Familiarity with market microstructure and FX or broader electronic trading concepts - Demonstrated ability to work with market data — tick data, order book data, or execution data - Strong software design sensibility — you write code you'd be proud to have reviewed Preferred Exposure to machine learning techniques (e.g. classification, regression, clustering) applied to financial or time-series data — not a prerequisite, but genuinely valued Experience with algorithmic execution or market making strategies - Familiarity with transaction cost analysis (TCA) or execution performance benchmarking ### Education - Master's degree or higher in a highly quantitative discipline (Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent) Personal Attributes A builder's mindset — you enjoy creating things from scratch and iterating quickly Intellectually restless — you question assumptions and look for better ways to do things - Strong communication skills, able to translate complex quantitative findings into clear, actionable insights for trading and sales stakeholders Collaborative and low-ego — you contribute to a team where everyone pulls their weight ------------------------------------------------------ Job Family Group: Institutional Trading ------------------------------------------------------ Job Family: Quantitative Analysis ------------------------------------------------------ Time Type: Full time ------------------------------------------------------ Most Relevant Skills Please see the requirements listed above. ------------------------------------------------------ Other Relevant Skills For complementary skills, please see above and/or contact the recruiter. ------------------------------------------------------ Citi is an equal opportunity employer, and qualified candidates will receive consideration without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, status as a protected veteran, or any other characteristic protected by law.
