About Standard Chartered
We're an international bank, nimble enough to act, big enough for impact. For more than 160 years, we've worked to make a positive difference for our clients, communities, and each other. We question the status quo, love a challenge and enjoy finding new opportunities to grow and do better than before. If you're looking for a career with purpose and you want to work for a bank making a difference, we want to hear from you. You can count on us to celebrate your unique talents. And we can't wait to see the talents you can bring us.
Bespoke Credit Solutions is a growth business in its early stages. Traders are required to spend an abnormal amount of time with MAG, QMR, IT and Project Managers on new product development. We are interested in bringing on a desk quant that would be able to provide the detailed specifications in a more timely manner. Through the course of time the desk quant would be able to transition into more traditional trading activities as we move into a more stable phase of the business.
