The posting

WorldQuant develops and deploys systematic financial strategies across a broad range of asset classes and global markets. We seek to produce high-quality predictive signals (alphas) through our proprietary research platform to employ financial strategies focused on market inefficiencies. Our teams work collaboratively to drive the production of alphas and financial strategies – the foundation of a balanced, global investment platform.

WorldQuant is built on a culture that pairs academic sensibility with accountability for results. Employees are encouraged to think openly about problems, balancing intellectualism and practicality. Excellent ideas come from anyone, anywhere. Employees are encouraged to challenge conventional thinking and possess an attitude of continuous improvement.

Our goal is to hire the best and the brightest. We value intellectual horsepower first and foremost, and people who demonstrate an outstanding talent. There is no roadmap to future success, so we need people who can help us build it.

The role: The Security Master supports research and collaborates with select front-office and execution teams across WorldQuant.

The Security Master Specialist will provide the following services to these groups:

  • Maintain an accurate and up to date Security Master for global equity, futures, options and other asset classes.
  • Liaise with our Treasury Services team to track and understand issues that may be caused by those exceptions and provide resolutions.
  • Work with our partner to manage day to day exceptions, overseeing and organizing a team of consultants in their tasks to this end.

The Security Master specialist will also oversee the team of consultants for the following:

  • Research and track upcoming exchange notices and corporate actions that impact the researchers. Provide commentary to multiple teams on the same.
  • Seek accurate information from brokers, data vendors, issuers, exchanges and other sources to ensure corporate actions are accurately represented. Liaise with brokers on these topics where necessary.
  • Ensure corporate actions are applied consistently across all asset classes – providing information to any team that may require further information, and alerting teams where information is delayed, inaccurate, inconsistent or may in any way affect some of the front office and execution teams.
  • Verify accurate valuation data is available for all asset classes, finding and resolving breaks with relevant parties.
  • To support the service, they will also assist in on boarding and testing any new features of the security master; build, maintain and oversee new operations procedures that arise from any new features. Liaise with our partner on the same.

Mandatory Skills:

  • Experience managing data within a firm wide Security Master
  • Experience in Corporate Actions
  • Well-versed with data-validation, exceptions and anomalies/pricing differences driven by collaborating with some of the front office and execution teams
  • Understanding of financial instruments
  • Managing operational processes and deadlines

Desirable Skills:

  • Experience with SQL (Joins across multiple tables, common table expressions, temporary tables, aggregate functions, case statements, ad-hoc loading of files into the database).
  • Unix shell commands and scripting

Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Daily analysis and filtration of reports
  • Daily running of tests and reporting bugs in select cases, e.g., comparing Security Master's data with vendor data
  • Responding to and following up on raised tickets, as well as researching internal tickets for data issues – managing life cycle to resolution
  • Constant analysis of regular tickets related to corporate actions
  • Driving continuous process improvement
  • Ad Hoc tasks – researching and testing for new features of security master applications, as well as onboarding and testing corporate actions for new share classes

What We Offer:

  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Core benefits include: premium private health insurance.
  • Strong culture of learning and development: training courses, guest speakers, share and learn events, etc.
  • Regular team buildings, annual conferences and occasional global summits – opportunity to travel and connect with our local and global teams.
  • Dynamic work without routine in a leading international company.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
