    Aspect Capital Research Internship 2025

    Aspect Capital are actively recruiting for their summer 2025 Research Internship programme and we are delighted to be partnering with them to offer you these fantastic opportunities! Ideally internships will start in early July and last for 12 weeks, but Aspect Capital can offer some flexibility on dates and duration but would expect the internship to last no less than 10 weeks.

    Here at Aspect Capital we apply systematic quantitative research techniques across a broad spectrum of financial assets, products and markets to deliver returns to investors within a strict risk management framework. We achieve this through a disciplined and consistent investment philosophy designed to generate performance even in declining markets.

    You will have the opportunity to work in a thriving, dynamic, collegiate, multi-disciplinary research team, conducting projects in quantitative financial research and contributing to all areas of model development, portfolio construction, risk management and market access.

    There will be opportunities across our Research team, with a focus on one of Global Macro, Options, or Managed Futures.

    Your role:

    You will be responsible for your own set of projects, whilst also gaining valuable insight into the work of the team and the functioning of the fund as a whole. More specifically, the work will entail: 

    • Maintaining and developing mathematical investment models using simulation tools
    • Assessing and proposing portfolio improvements which are compatible with our stated risk management goals
    • Provide statistical analysis of market data in systematic mathematical investment strategy models
    • Generating and developing written research and strategy materials
    • Creating and maintaining investment management software

    Your experience:

    • You must have completed your second year working towards a numerate masters or PhD.

    You will need:

    • Programming ability in a high level language: MATLAB, R, Python or possibly Java
    • Strong oral and written communication skills including the ability to explain complex issues simply
    • Deductive reasoning skills and the ability to analyse and synthesise information for problem solving

    We will be even more interested if you have any of these:

    • Experience in selecting and applying analytical techniques to real world problems
    • Good understanding of statistics and probability
    • Basic knowledge of the financial markets

    If this sounds of interest then we’d love to hear from you, please upload your CV and either attach a covering letter or leave some notes in the comments box on the application form confirming whether there is an area you are particularly interested in and your availability to work in 2025.
