Quant Analyst / Junior PM- Family Office - Luxembourg

Location: Luxembourg
Department: Investment Team
Reports to: CIO

Our client is an active asset manager investing in liquid and alternatives strategies. The CIO and the portfolio manager are looking for an associate level raising start to assist them with investment and operation, bridging the gap between development, operations, and investment analysis — someone who can both back up the PM on the technical side and support daily operations such as reporting, middle-office follow-up, and portfolio analysis.

• Process improvement: automate manual workflows and contribute to improving data reliability and operational efficiency.
• Collaborate directly with both the CIO and the PM to ensure smooth investment operations.
• Contribute to strategy testing, portfolio analytics, and investment research.

• 2 to 5 years of experience in quantitative research, IT/development.
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or Java.
• Solid understanding of data handling, automation, and reporting workflows.
• Interest in financial markets, trading, and portfolio management.

• Strong analytical mindset and attention to detail.
• Fluent in English (French a plus).

Preferred / “Nice to Have”

• Experience with financial data, APIs, or portfolio management systems.
