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 capital topics.
- Model validation / model
