Online Macro Coach Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Fixed Income Strats Summer Associate Program is an intensive 10-week program that provides Summer Associates the opportunity to work alongside full-time professionals on impactful, quantitative projects. Summer Associates will work within an assigned team for the entirety of the program. The multi-faceted program features senior strat speaker series, product area training, and networking events. With individual coaching and continuous feedback, the program enables Summer Associates to experience and understand what a long-term career with the Firm entails.

Training Program

The Summer will kick off with a week-long introductory training program, which will provide an institutional contextualization to the work that Summer Associates will be doing through market-knowledge training, finance workshops, coding and product training. Following the training week, Summer Associates will continue to receive more individualized, on-the-job training as they join their assigned desks and begin their daily work and projects. Summer Associates will have a direct manager, as well as a program mentor, both of whom will act as invaluable resources throughout their time at Morgan Stanley.

Responsibilities

Morgan Stanley operates several teams which require experts in statistical analysis, applied mathematics, computer science and computational finance. These teams operate our leading trading platforms, market making operations and derivative structuring, pricing and risk management. The mathematical problems arising in these areas are subtle, complex and require a broad range of technical skills. As a Summer Associate, you will leverage the technical expertise you have been grooming in your academic studies and apply it to extremely applied problems. Many of the applied problems and processes that you will work on are still unsolved and are yet to be optimized.
