A leading global hedge fund is seeking a skilled Equity Derivatives Trader / Sub-Portfolio Manager to join their Hong Kong-based macro trading team. This role sits within a dynamic pod that trades FX, rates, and equity derivatives, with a primary focus on index-based strategies.

Responsibilities:

• Trade and manage equity derivatives, with an emphasis on index options and futures, to drive risk-adjusted returns within the macro pod.
• Leverage market insights to identify opportunities across equity indices, integrating macro themes with FX and rates where applicable.
• Develop, refine, and execute trading strategies in collaboration with the Portfolio Manager and team, balancing risk and reward in volatile markets.
• Monitor real-time market conditions, positioning, and risk exposures, ensuring alignment with the fund’s objectives.
• Contribute to idea generation and trade structuring, bringing creativity and precision to the desk.

Qualifications:

• 8+ years of experience in the financial market, including at least 1-2 years of proprietary trading experience in equity derivatives (indices preferred), with a demonstrable track record of P&L generation.
• Exposure to FX and/or rates trading is a strong plus, though not required—candidates with the ability to bridge equity derivatives and macro asset classes will stand out.
• Proficiency in options pricing, volatility modeling, and risk management; familiarity with electronic trading systems is advantageous.
• Strong analytical mindset, decisive execution, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
