Location: Madrid, Madrid, Spain Remote: Hybrid Type: Permanent Job #26061 A Madrid-based investment analytics team is hiring a hands-on Quant Team Lead to combine deep mathematical modelling with day-to-day leadership of a small team.
This is not a “manager-only” job. You’ll build models, validate assumptions, work in Python + SQL, and still be the person who sets the technical standard, coaches others, and helps the team deliver decision-grade outputs under real deadlines.
Location: Madrid (Hybrid) — typically 3 days/week in-office.

What you’ll do
Lead the analytics delivery on live valuation / portfolio analysis work (hands-on modelling + ownership). Mentor and level-up analysts: technical reviews, modelling best practice, quality control, and clearer communication. Improve quantitative models used for valuation, forecasting, and risk/sensitivity analysis. Turn messy datasets into reliable outputs (data QA, reconciliation, controls, repeatable pipelines). Run scenario analysis / stress testing and clearly explain key drivers of value and risk.



Present your findings to senior stakeholders (committee-style conversations) and defend assumptions calmly. Improve how the team works: templates, documentation, automation, and model governance.
What we’re looking for (must-haves)
Strong mathematical/quant foundation (e.g., Maths/Stats/Physics/Engineering/Quant Finance/Econometrics). Proven experience in quantitative finance / risk / valuation / portfolio analytics (credit risk, asset valuation, model validation, treasury/ALM, derivatives/structured products, etc.). Strong Python (pandas + modelling workflow) and SQL (real datasets, performance/accuracy, QA checks). Leadership signal: team lead/manager/project lead, or clear evidence of mentoring/coaching and quality ownership. Able to work at pace and produce decision-grade analysis (clear thinking, pragmatic modelling, strong judgement).
Nice to have
Credit risk modelling exposure: PD / LGD / EAD, IFRS 9 / regulatory cap
