My SO is in this role, and I’m interested in this career path as well so have done some research. He makes 150k base, 150k-400k bonus previously and expects close to 1M bonus this year. Obviously varies widely depending on the fund size/quality. 10 YOE started out as a trader at tier 2 bank. Trajectory: he’s in talks with senior people about starting to manage his book. At the PM level, I’ve seen 3-5-10-40MM all in. Not many other exit opportunities other than PM, investment strategist/asset allocator or trader.
Relative to a PE role where you can exit to corporate strategy/business ops side, a HF research role is more suited for people who are strictly interested in financial markets/trading and not as much the business side.
@C1 what was the comp that they offered you?
Very interested in this. Can you share an example of one? Would be curious to see what they’re looking for in the JD.
