Melbourne, Australia AE Capital Full time

**Why AE Capital? ****:
AE Capital is focused on forecasting the future. Our approach is scientific and combines the power of human expertise with machine learning to create algorithms that predict the world’s financial markets. As with complex problems like weather forecasting, the best forecasts come from humans interacting with the computer models and we have been developing a similar philosophy in finance for over 10 years.

We are always on the lookout for self-motivated, results-driven analytical minds who enjoy problem solving and can bring their skills and experience to our team. This is a unique opportunity to learn from industry leaders in our collaborative and hands-on environment, pushing the boundaries of finance and technology.

Enjoy the many benefits of working for AE Capital, at our offices in Melbourne, one of the world’s most liveable cities. With flexible work hours, genuine autonomy, and the ability to have a direct impact on the business, our unique culture embodies the Aussie spirit of mateship, teamwork and the open exchange of ideas in a fun, dynamic and informal environment.

**What we look for**:
Nearly everything we do at AE Capital is unique and different which results in our world leading outcomes. The continued success of this requires teamwork, strong problem-solving skills, great communication and lots of (dead-end) experimentation.

So, when ploughing through these tough problems, we want to work with likeminded people who
- are passionate and excited about what they do
- are loyal and honest to each other
- are hard working
- have a thirst for knowledge and try to solve one’s own problems
- focus on the detail and correctness of their work
- and are dedicated to get the job done

because this, above all else, will determine our continued, mutual success.

**Junior Trading Analyst**

**The job**
As a Junior Trading Analyst at AE Capital, you will have a unique opportunity to work closely with Senior Traders in researching fundamental ideas that directly lead to the creation of new trading systems. You will also work with the trading operations team to assist in the running of those systems.

Day to day you will assist Senior Traders in researching new ideas. For example, this may involve analysing CFTC reports in combination with world trade data to support a hypothesis on how speculators and hedgers behave in soft commodity markets. Or reviewing central bank reports to gain a better understanding of how different central banks around the world rebalance their foreign reserves and the affects this may have on foreign exchange markets.

Ultimately, by working closely with Senior Traders you will, in time, become an expert on one or more asset classes and how to trade them.

On the operations side, you will not only ensure our systems are operating correctly, but also gain valuable knowledge in the mechanics of how electronic capital markets truly work. From understanding how electronic networks and market makers influence the price of a market on millisecond time scales, to the middle and back-office processes international investment banks use to ensure counterparty risk on a trade is controlled.

Ultimately, by working with one of the few Australian businesses that trades systematically on the world’s capital markets, you will gain a unique set of skills rarely on offer at other firms.

**About You**
You will have, or be nearing completion, a university qualification in finance, commerce, economics, or a related field.

This role does not require any financial industry experience, although some experience would be beneficial.
- Hard working, naturally curious with an interest in financial markets.
- Self-motivated with a high-level of initiative.
- Comfortable reading and absorbing large amounts of information with an ability to distil it into its core meaning and show critical thinking.
- Quick with numbers and able to spot anomalies.
- Adept at understanding charts and other technical information.
- Comfortable with computers and IT systems, perhaps even have some experience coding.
- Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to exercise good judgment and pro-active decision-making in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.

**What’s in it for You**:

- Attractive and competitive base salary package + Super.
- Potential to earn significant bonuses based on personal and company performance.
- Hybrid Work from Home / Office environment.
- Grade A office building in Melbourne’s CBD.
- Excellent amenities including End of Trip Facilities (Bike Storage, Showers, Towel Service, Lockers, etc.), Café, Social events, Table Tennis and Video Games

If you are accountable, professional, enjoy a collaborative high achieving team environment and want to work with some of the brightest and best in the business, all you need to do is send us your CV, Cover letter, and university transcript (if applicable).

In return we will provide you with a work environment a
