Job description

Overview
As a Summer Analyst on Susquehanna's Macro Research team, you will be partnered with our senior analysts and traders to assist in identifying investment opportunities in the equity, index, and options markets. You will learn to perform in-depth company analysis around future catalyst events and provide real-time opinions on breaking news throughout the trading day. You will gain experience in the financial markets by tracking company news and events, assisting with valuation work, and completing event-driven projects.
Our ten-week summer internship program introduces you to our unique approach to research through practical experience on a global macro-focused team and education in a classroom setting.
What we're looking for
  • Intention to graduate with a bachelor's or master's degree and begin full time employment by August 2028
  • Strong written, analytical, and financial research skills
  • Ability to prioritize and complete multiple tasks in a fast paced, dynamic environment
  • Prior exposure to fundamental company research preferred
  • Demonstrated interest in the financial markets
  • Familiarity with a trading environment and derivative products preferred
  • Visa sponsorship for work authorization is not available for this position now or in the future

What's In It For You
  • Our non-hierarchical culture allows employees of every level to thrive and make impact. We are not your typical trading firm - the environment is casual, collaborative and we focus on continuous development.
  • Housing provided for duration of internship
  • Relaxed dress code: jeans and sneakers are the norm, shorts all summer long
  • Fully stocked kitchens for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and beverages
  • A forty thousand square-foot state of the art fitness facility with brand-new equipment, multi-purpose courts, group exercise classes, and locker room spaces
  • Discounts for dining, entertainment, shopping, travel, and attractions
  • Social events including a poker tournament, dinners, and sporting events in Philadelphia
  • On-site Wellness Center
  • On-site services such as a mailroom, barber, dry cleaning, and car maintenance
  • Opportunities to give back to the community through Susquehanna sponsored events and donation drives
