Hi,
I'm a Level 3 candidate and am a frequent reader of this forum. I noticed a lot of you here are looking for a new gig/career so...
My team at Northern Trust (downtown Chicago) is looking to hire a Jr. Quant PM. I thought this forum would be a good place to post because we are looking for someone that is on track to getting a CFA. We are also looking for someone with good programming skills and an ability to work with huge sets of data. Experience with SAS, R, Matlab and Python a big plus.
The role would involve -
1) Maintaining our production process ie automating the fundamental data download, generating alpha scores, running optimizations and generating diagnostics.
2) Dealing with cash flows and corporate actions.
3) Optimizing portfolio construction.
4) Factor research.
Since this is a small team, everyone is pretty much involved with all aspects of portfolio management and research. It'd be an awesome opportunity for someone with a more technical background and very interested in finance.
Reply or PM me if you're interested.

Hi kancharla,
I also work at Northern Trust. I am currently working as a Financial Reporting Analsyt at the Canal building. I am also a Level 3 candidate and I am highly interested in the position. Since we both are in Chicago, I was wondering if we can possibly meet in person to discuss the opportunity? My log-in id is DK111.
Thank you.作者: NakedPuts2011 时间: 2011-9-26 05:10
