SOC 2433 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £55,100, and Saragossa is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 3531 (Brokers, Trading live risk and Delta One strategies could be broker/trader work) or SOC 1131 (Financial managers and directors, Sub Portfolio Manager role managing a pod's portfolio). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
Senior Quant / Sub Portfolio Manager – Hedge Fund – £500,000+ Total Comp
Step off the sell side treadmill and into a seat where your upside is tied directly to what you produce.
You're joining one of the top 3 performing pods at a hedge fund that has seen significant injections of AUM and is now actively deploying that capital across the business. This is a growing platform with a global presence and a culture that genuinely holds onto its people — tenure here is strong, and that says a lot.
The pod you're joining has a serious mandate. You're working across Delta One strategies, volatility, exotics and macro. You're not going to be one of dozens of quants buried in a large team waiting for approval. You'll be building the infrastructure from scratch and you'll be trading live risk yourself. That transition into a Sub Portfolio Manager role is the plan, not a vague promise.
Compensation is tied to the performance of the pod. When the pod wins, you win. That's the difference between here and a bank where your bonus is a committee decision made three floors above you.
The culture is collaborative without the politics and churn you'd find at the larger multi-managers. People are here because they want to be, and they stay.
You're coming from the sell side or buy side with strong experience in Delta One strategies. Dividends trading experience is something you'll need to bring with you along with a very analytical background. This is a mid/senior seat, so someone who's had meaningful exposure across the relevant products and you're ready to take on more ownership than your current role allows.
Total compensation is upwards of £500,000 with bonus directly linked to PnL.

Does this job guarantee visa sponsorship?
Not necessarily. Saragossa holds a sponsor licence, but sponsorship for a specific hire is always the employer's decision. Be upfront in your application that you'll require it.
What salary is needed for this role to be eligible?
The offer must clear both the general threshold and the SOC 2433 going rate of £55,100. New-entrant and shortage discounts can lower it.
