Platinum & Partners is representing a US systematic hedge fund hiring a Portfolio Manager to run a systematic macro book across global futures and FX. The fund wants differentiated, diversifying return streams that complement classic trend.
The opportunity
- Own a systematic macro sleeve across rates, FX, equity index and commodity futures
- Capital of $100m–$500m depending on track record and capacity
- Institutional data, execution and risk infrastructure from day one
- Scope to bring or build a small research team
What is required
- 5+ years of verified live P&L running systematic macro, CTA or managed-futures strategies
- Strategy focus: trend plus alternative signals — carry, value, macro-fundamental, nowcasting, cross-asset RV
- Sharpe of 1.0+ over a full cycle with documented crisis-period behaviour
- Track record at a systematic hedge fund, multi-manager or CTA
- Python / C++ / KDB+/q research and production capability
What this is not
- A seat for discretionary macro PMs
- An SMA, seed or external allocation
Absolute discretion guaranteed.
