ZZ Vermögensverwaltung GmbH, Coburgbastei 4, Top 5, 1010 Wien
Summer internship (f/m/x)
Quantitative research and asset management
3-month full-time position (July-September 2021)
ZZ Vermögensverwaltung GmbH is a fund management company domiciled in Vienna. Our core investment focus
includes, but is not limited to, emerging and frontier fixed income markets. While historically focusing on a discretionary
asset management approach, a new perspective toward quantitative and systematic investing has emerged within the
firm. Therefore, we seek to expand our existing research team and look for a quantitative summer intern to assist
across a broad range of tasks relevant for the firm, including the management of a purely systematic quant fund. You
will be introduced to our trading models, applications, technology, and overall business and have the opportunity to
leverage your analytical and quantitative skills. This opportunity will enable you to experience a steep learning curve,
while working on challenging and impactful projects in a flexible and collegial working atmosphere.
Your main responsibilities will include:
- Support the setup of a new, innovative and quantitatively managed fund
- Assistance in recurring monthly tasks such as fund rebalancing, strategy adjustments, trade booking and
reporting
- Data analysis, including prototyping and back-testing of quantitative trading strategies
- Independent research projects and development of new quantitative tools pertinent for the new fund
- Reading/summarizing academic research and active participation in a monthly reading circle to stay updated
on latest publications
- Occasional support to our discretionary portfolio management team (i.e. suggestion and modelling of appli-
cable quantitative approaches or quantification of portfolio metrics)
To succeed in the role, you will need:
- To pursue a degree in a quantitative discipline (mathematics, physics, statistics, computer science, quantita-
tive finance or related field)
- Solid programming skills in R (SQL is a plus)
- A self-starter attitude and motivation to work on challenging and complex financial problems
- To communicate complex ideas clearly, be attentive to detail, open-minded and able to work collaboratively
with others
- The ability and willingness to take full responsibility of assigned projects, including prioritization, communica-
tion and management of multiple tasks and projects concurrently to meet diverse deadlines
We offer a:
- Full-time summer position
- Flexible and dynamic working atmosphere
- Unique hedge fund environment with an entrepreneurial working culture
- Remuneration of €1500/month
We look forward to receiving your application and are happy to assist you in case you have further questions. Please
forward your application, including CV, cover letter and transcripts by mail to Dr. Georg Cejnek
(georg.cejnek@zzgmbh.at) no later than March 31, 2021.
