Hedge Fund COO – Looking to move into FinTech

Role details

CassonX are delighted to be partnering with one of the most exciting names in the FinTech world. This specialist business is growing, and has hired some truly inspirational and those with outstanding pedigree from the Hedge Fund and Prime Brokerage sectors so far. By attracting those who come from industry, makes them highly regarded in what is a unique sector of the market, with the added bonus of FinTech working conditions that are collaborative, autonomous and really tangible to see your own contributions to their company. This high growth company offers hybrid working conditions, albeit not a typical 9-5 environment, where there are lots of long term rewards and where the leaders will leave you to get on with your role and trust your expertise to be successful.

To be considered for this role, CassonX are looking to ideally attract a proven Hedge Fund COO who offers experience of working with Prime Brokers (PB), and can showcase experience of choosing relevant PB’s and being involved in the negotiations of agreements accordingly. You will have an understanding of how Treasury and Financing might work, showcasing examples of how this has been achieved in your fund, and they may even consider a “Head of Treasury” from a Hedge Fund profile also. You will offer a consultative demeanour, an ability to hold face to face meetings with industry peers whilst acting with credibility, and a natural flare to be inquisitive to understand what peers do with their vendors and solutions yet not afraid to probe to see if they can be improved or more favourable.

There is no hiding that this role is to help this FinTech firm grow their client base in the Hedge Fund sector, but we must be clear that this is not a high volume Investor Relations / Cap Raising style cold calling role. They are much more considered than a typical “numbers game” type of sales role. They would like to bring someone in who has sat in a COO seat, offering credibility and expertise in their sector, and showcasing what their platform can do to save time and monies for the potential new client. This role suits someone with knowledge and experience surrounding Prime Brokers and how to manage their relationships and financing as example. More detail and a job description is only available to those who submit a relevant CV.

CassonX Limited are committed to providing fair employment opportunities to all applicants. We encourage anyone to apply, regardless of their background, and promote a fair and inclusive recruitment process based on merit.
