Your team
The Quantitative Research team within Handelsbanken Markets is looking for interns. The team is comprised of 8 people responsible for developing valuation models, index models and tools for pricing & analytics. Our work covers all asset classes: Interest Rates, Credits, Equities, FX and Commodities.

The team is seated on the trading floor and works in close cooperation with sales & trading desks,
as well as departments for risk management, risk control and treasury. We also play a central role in the area of investment advice through our expertise in building simulation models.

Your role
As Quantitative Research Intern, you will work under the guidance of colleagues from our team, as well as from our eFX business unit, and your research will be focused on currencies trading with the aim to optimize our customer offering. The work process will cover the whole development life cycle from analysis and investigation to implementation. You should have a passion for programming, mathematics, financial markets and for learning new skills.

Your profile
We are looking for a candidate who:

• Studies at a technical university with focus on mathematics and programming.
• Is about to start the 5th year of university studies.
• Has a strong academic track record.
• Has an interest in financial markets.
• Has strong programming skills.
• Has the ability to learn quickly.

As a person you should be self-reliant, driven and have a desire to exceed expectations. Considering our close cooperation with other teams, you should be a strong team player, communicator and work in a structured manner.

The internship ideally stretches from September to January and to make it as mutually rewarding as possible, we are looking for candidates who are available one day per week (on average) at our office in central Stockholm during the fall semester.

We are interested to learn about yourself, your skills and how you can contribute as part of our team, as well as previous achievements that you are proud of. When applying, please include an up-to-date academic transcript.
