Job Description

On Behalf of a Discretionary Allocator / Multi-Manager Platform

We are partnering with an established allocator (running internal funds + external SMAs) actively seeking high-quality quantitative trading teams and individual traders to allocate significant capital.

Allocator Background

• Experienced multi-manager allocator with roots in traditional finance (ex-Brevan Howard, Citadel Multi-Manager etc).
• Currently manages ~$20M+ AUM across strategies, including 3 internal funds launched in 2024 and large external SMAs, plans to scale to 100M+ with investors ready to deploy.
• Team footprint: London & New York trading/PM focus; engineering support (consulting basis) in Hong Kong.
• Proven track record in equity multi-manager and market-neutral/arbitrage approaches.
• Deep crypto trading connections and capital introduction expertise.

What We're Looking For

Proven teams or individuals generating consistent P&L in Crypto

• Quantitative / systematic strategies
• High-Frequency Trading (HFT)
• Statistical / execution arbitrage
• Delta-neutral / market-neutral setups
• Relative value, latency-driven edges, counterparty/special connections, or niche arbitrage opportunities

Ideal profiles include:

• Current or former prop traders / small teams at established prop firms or hedge funds.
• Independent quant groups with live track record but latent / under-deployed capacity.
• Individuals or small teams (2-5 people) with strong engineering, low-latency execution, or unique alpha sources.
• Top performing teams at any scale interested in external funding.
• Preference for backgrounds from top-tier firms (HFT shops, multi-strats, pods, etc.).

The Opportunity

• Significant capital allocation via SMA or fund structure (external mandate, no need to launch your own full fund).
• Competitive economics: performance-aligned (fixed + variable components discussed based on strategy/track record).
• Discovery & trust-based process: direct conversations with allocator to explore fit.
• Potential to scale with proven results; allocator has onboarded external teams successfully.
• Flexible: can be individuals, pods, or small teams — not requiring a full prop firm setup.

This is not a traditional job — it's an introduction to capital for strong performers who may be capacity-constrained, seeking better terms, or open to external backing at the right time.

How to Express Interest (Confidential)

If this aligns with your current setup or strategy, please apply directly or reach out privately with:

• Brief overview of your strategy / edge (market neutral, arb, HFT, etc.)
• Track record summary (Sharpe, drawdowns, capacity estimates, AUM if applicable)
• Current setup (solo, team size, location, prop/hedge background)
