About the Role

We are seeking a quantitative researcher to lead ERA's credit coverage from New York. You will work closely with traders and portfolio managers, identifying problems as they emerge, with the time to research and solve them properly. You will report to the Head of ERA, and your work will inform execution across GIC's fixed income mandates globally. At VP level you will be expected to set direction as well as deliver. You will identify which problems are worth solving, turn ambiguous business questions into tractable research, be responsible for the stakeholder relationships around them, and steer ERA's credit research agenda within a cross-asset team.

Responsibilities

Lead GIC's credit execution research agenda, setting a multi-phase roadmap spanning market impact and liquidity modeling, counterparty and platform selection, portfolio trading, protocol choice and transaction cost analysis (TCA).
Translate the roadmap into prioritized research with clear measures of success.
Apply advanced quantitative methods to high-granularity trade and quote data to answer questions that have no existing solution.
Work through a disciplined research process to ensure outcomes are robust.
Act as ERA's point of contact for Credit, serving as the primary stakeholder lead for traders and portfolio managers with credit execution questions.
Be responsible for stakeholder relationships, shaping the resulting research agenda, and making prioritization decisions within ERA's broader objectives.
Guide the credit research roadmap for our proprietary execution analytics platform.
Propose new models, metrics and datasets, work with developers to deploy them into production, and close the feedback loop so one-off answers become durable, reusable capability.
Represent ERA's credit research externally, maintaining a view across peer institutions, dealers, trading platforms, vendors and academic literature.
Lead external conversations with autonomy, tracking market developments and applying what is relevant to our own context.
Strengthen research quality across the wider team by reviewing code and methodology, contributing to research discussions, and making credit insight transferable to rates, FX and listed markets through shared research frameworks.

Requirements

Professional experience in a quantitative research or markets role covering credit or broader fixed income (e.g., researcher, quantitative analyst, trader, or portfolio manager), including experience of taking research from problem formulation to application.
Knowledge of credit market structure: dealer intermediation and balance sheet constraints, RFQ and all-to-all protocols, portfolio trading, ETF-driven liquidity, and how credit liquidity behaves under stress.
Familiarity with the credit data landscape (TRACE, consolidated tapes, evaluated pricing, dealer inventory indications, quote data) and a realistic view of its limitations.
Experience with fixed income transaction cost analysis (TCA).
A practical understanding of where ML/AI genuinely add value in execution research and decision support, and where simpler, more interpretable methods are the better choice.
The ability to scope ill-defined problems into deliverable research.
The ability to allocate scarce research effort to the highest-value opportunities.
The ability to explain complex analysis precisely to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Familiarity with rates or FX market structure, given our cross-asset remit.
Experience with kdb+/q and Databricks.
Experience representing a research team to dealers, trading platforms and vendors.
