Introduction to the world of hedge funds and the buy side with Rokos Capital Management: Flagship Graduate Networking Evening

January 30, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

 On Tuesday 30th January from 7pm in Pembroke College’s Pichette Auditorium in the Rokos Quad, you will have a very unique chance to attend one of the most insightful and exciting events of the year with the hedge fund manager Rokos Capital Management.
Founded by Chris Rokos (an Oxford alumnus from Pembroke College) in 2015, and who previously was co-founder of Brevan Howard Asset Management, this is an incredible opportunity to hear more about the buy side and the graduate opportunities that RCM has to offer.  The Firm manages a global macro hedge fund that targets consistent long-term returns for its investors within a well-defined risk framework. The fund is active in the major macro asset classes: interest rates, FX, equities, as well as emerging markets, credit and commodities. Today they have over 110 employees between their London headquarters and Washington D.C. research office.
This promises to an invaluable event for anyone with an interest in the world financial climate, the finance, hedge fund and asset management industries and for those looking to apply for positions. It will offer an introduction into the world of hedge funds and the buyside, the work they do, and how to succeed in this high profile and competitive industry. There will be an opportunity for a unique discussion covering some topical issues and you can gain some additional knowledge and insight into the markets and current affairs to use going forward in your career. As one of the only hedge funds offering positions directly to graduates, RCM are looking for keen, inquisitive minds to join the fund straight out of university. Students with an Economics or STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematical disciplines) are particularly welcome as well as those who already have offers and incoming graduate roles or internships. This is the perfect opportunity to network in a comfortable setting over free food and drinks and find out more about the world of hedge funds and the buyside. The Head of Investor Relations Mark Edwards and Head of HR Lindsey Boden will be in attendance along with Nick Dawson, Portfolio Manager. There will also be representatives from their risk, investment, quant, infrastructure, research and enterprise technology teams as well as Oxford alumni! To apply please email your CV to graduates@rokoscapital.com You will be emailed by Monday 29th January to confirm if you have been successful in attaining a place.
