Business Development & Strategy Manager (GERMANY) (m/w/d)
About Trexquant
Trexquant develops and operates systematic trading strategies across a range of global liquid markets. Behind that is an enormous, deeply technical system and an exceptional team of researchers and engineers. We are collaborative, fast-moving, early adopters of new technology, and genuinely proud of what we build. Our headquarters is in Stamford, CT, and we plan to expand into Europe.
About the Position
Germany has world-class quantitative and engineering talent, and we want to be where that talent is. We are planning on opening an office in the Munich area and looking for someone to lead the buildout on the ground — someone who has done enough in their career to know how organizations work, how to get things moving in Germany specifically, and how to represent a high-caliber firm to skeptical, in-demand candidates. At the initial stage, this role will be engaged through our local Employer of Record partner.
What You’ll Do
- Own hiring strategy and implementation for quant developers and researchers in the Munich area, working alongside the recruiting team in Stamford
- Coordinate the physical and operational setup of the office with US-based leadership and functional teams
- Represent Trexquant at hiring events, in meetings, and in direct conversations with candidates and partners in the German talent market
- Keep global teams informed with clear reporting on progress, hiring pipeline, and milestones
- Coordinate with company legal and compliance staff to follow local and global requirements for positive development and growth
