Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality, and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.



At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home. We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, ‘anchor’, days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.


What will you be doing?
  • Designing, developing, and improving models and analytics in Prime, specifically Fixed Income Financing
  • Accounting for the maintenance and extension of our models used for pricing/risk/market discovery/regulatory reporting
  • Implementing model change enhancement within our pricing framework
  • Liaising with Front Office and Technology to deploy our library/tools to production
  • Providing daily support for front office trading activity
  • Spotting any potential problems and finding ways to solve them
  • Providing tactical analysis on risk, PnL, and the like
  • Working with confidential information, where discretion and trust are essential


What we’re looking for:
  • Master’s in financial mathematics or PhD in a quantitative field such as Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering or similar
  • Extensive working knowledge of Python/C++ (or other object-oriented programming languages) and experience in quant libraries, fixed income product pricing
  • Excellent analytical and numerical skills (probabilities, stochastics, integration theory etc.), familiarity and practical experience with statistics and data analysis
  • Critical thinking, great attention to detail and independent problem-solving skills with excellent verbal and written communication skills


Skills that will help you in the role:
  • Working knowledge of financing products (repo/margin loan/securities lending/total return swaps), as well as linear hedging instruments (FX/IR Swaps, Basis Swaps, forwards/futures)
  • Role specific asset class experience (fixed income)
  • Experience with cross-platform / cross-technology development (Windows/Linux) and workflow automation
  • Experience with data visualization tools and libraries (e.g., Jupyter, Dash)


Where will you be working?

In the heart of Canary Wharf, our headquarters at Churchill Place boasts onsite amenities such as; a gym, staff restaurant and deli bar, and is easily accessible by tube and bus links. With a population of around 5000 staff the atmosphere is second to none with a real buzz being created around the offices within.
