Quant PM - APAC Markets

The Company This quantitative firm is building out its alternative data capability, with a focus on signal research and monetisation across APAC markets. The team sits within a broader systematic research function, spanning both quantamental and pure systematic approaches. Regional expertise sits at the heart of this build: sector-specific, market-level knowledge across APAC is scarce and highly valued, and this role exists to convert that edge into monetisation. The Role

• Monetise alpha signals generated by the research team, with a particular focus on China, Taiwan and Hong Kong equities
• Apply deep local market knowledge, broker relationships and exchange dynamics to inform position sizing, timing and execution
• Convert regional nuance, on sector behaviour, local flow, market structure, into tangible monetisation edge, not just relationship depth on paper
• Manage portfolio construction and risk across signals sourced from alternative, fundamental and positioning data
• Work closely with alpha researchers throughout the research lifecycle, from signal generation through to live deployment
• Apply modern ML techniques and agentic AI workflows to sharpen monetisation efficiency and execution quality
• Contribute to KPI frameworks and data-driven tools supporting the broader research function
• Help shape sector coverage priorities and mentor junior members of the team as the APAC build scales Your Profile

• Track record as a PM or senior monetisation lead running quantamental or systematic equity strategies, likely 7+ years' experience

• Proficient in Python, with hands-on experience handling alternative and positioning datasets
• Background in quantamental or pure systematic research, ideally with exposure to both
• Comfortable working alongside both fundamentally-minded and systematic researchers
• Naturally curious, with an interest in identifying new data sets and research angles specific to APAC Pre-Application Requirements
