CassonX are delighted to have been asked to recruit for this amazing $9bn Fixed Income focussed Relative Value Macro fund based in St James’s. This business hires outstandingly talented individuals who are not only intelligent and work autonomously, but those who thrive in an environment where everyone sits in the Front Office. Everyone has astonishingly good communication skills, and ability to work with various different stakeholders comfortably, with a mindset of making sure that all work is done well, timely and successfully. It’s a very collaborative environment, hard work and everyone helps each other out and can work out all technical challenges logically, and in return they pay well above market bonuses.
To be considered for this role, CassonX are looking to identify someone with 3 -9 years experience in Product Control role, with particular emphasis on Fixed Income and Rates products.

This is because whilst there are other Product Controllers who work for the firm in other locations, this is the first hire in London and needs someone who will be excited to help grow the function in London. Experience of directly working with traders and their complex queries and investigations is of paramount importance, and tenacity coupled with dedication to do the best you can. We are looking for someone who is “keen”, and will embrace such a good opportunity.
In return for a successful video and face to face interview process, you will be rewarded with an incredibly varied role, working in a youthful yet talented company supporting all T+1 P&L Reconciliations and Valuations responsibilities. There will be a lot of project work, especially as you help create this new function and integrate a “follow the sun” model with those in the USA and Asia.
