<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Programme duration:</span></strong><span data-contrast="auto"> 4–6 months, starting in 2027</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Locations: </span></strong><span data-contrast="auto">Aarhus, Budapest, Dubai, Geneva, London, Paris, Zurich</span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Who qualifies:</span></strong><span data-contrast="auto"> Penultimate or final-year students completing a bachelor’s, master’s or PhD degree</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Qube Research &amp; Technologies (QRT)</span></strong><span data-contrast="auto"> is a global quantitative and systematic investment manager operating across liquid asset classes and markets worldwide. Our approach to investing is scientific: we bring together data, research, technology and trading expertise to develop and run systematic strategies.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Research is central to how QRT invests. Over the years, we have built a global research and execution platform spanning geographies, asset classes and trading horizons, from high to low frequency. This gives our researchers access to large and diverse datasets, sophisticated research tools </span><span data-contrast="auto">and the infrastructure needed to turn research ideas into live trading strategies.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Our internships are designed to give students meaningful experience of that process. You’ll join a systematic team, work on real research or trading problems and learn from experienced researchers and traders. The environment is rigorous and collaborative: ideas are tested against data, assumptions are challenged and good questions matter as much as quick answers.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Your future role at QRT</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Throughout the recruitment process, we’ll consider your skills and interests alongside the problems our teams are working on, with the aim of finding the strongest fit.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">As a Quantitative Research Intern, you could contribute in one of two complementary areas within one of QRT’s systematic teams, spanning high, mid and low frequencies:</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Research</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Your focus will be on developing predictive signals from large and varied datasets. You’ll explore the data for patterns and form hypotheses about what might be driving them. From there, research is iterative: you’ll design tests, question the results, adjust your approach and test again. Working with other researchers, you’ll learn to distinguish promising signals from noise. In doing so, you’ll experience the full research process, from an initial observation to something that can be used in live trading.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Trading</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">You’ll contribute to the live deployment of QRT’s research by working directly with our systematic trading platform. You’ll monitor how signals behave in production, track performance, improve execution efficiency and help identify and manage potential risks. Working closely with senior Researchers and Traders you’ll investigate how strategies behave in production and look for ways to make them more robust and scalable. You’ll use quantitative analysis and programming to understand what is happening in live systems and determine where improvements can be made.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Across both areas, </span><span data-contrast="auto">how you approach a problem matter. We’re looking for interns who are curious, creative and collaborative. You should be comfortable exploring ideas, asking questions and learning </span><span data-contrast="auto">as you go.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
