The company

Our London-based team of data, digital and design specialists has developed a proprietary investment reporting platform that generates highly personalised solutions for the fund management industry. Clients of all sizes, from start-up boutiques to global asset management firms, are assured of the attention to detail, effortless customisation and peace of mind that are hallmarks of a solution crafted by Huguenots.

The role

As an Investment Reporting Analyst, you will be immersed in projects that are core to the business and critical to the continued growth of the company. Working within our account management team, you will take responsibility for the generation of monthly investment reports, ongoing website management and the development of key client relationships.

You will work closely with colleagues in a team that emphasises both interpersonal skills and technical proficiency. From the outset, you will play a key role in delivering our trademark reporting solutions and take ownership of client relationships. You will need to build an excellent understanding of the client’s fund offering in order to assist in all aspects of their investment reporting. In doing so, you will be provided with the opportunity to become an expert in the investment reporting space.

You will require an agile and logical approach and will need to apply high levels of intellectual rigour to each challenge presented to you. Joining a small and collaborative team, there is much scope for the right candidate to take ownership of entire processes and lead on delivering new projects. Examples of your typical responsibilities will include:

• Frequently attending meetings with the client and keeping in touch via email and telephone
• Speaking with clients to understand their reporting needs and effectively communicating these to the implementation and design teams
• Getting to grips with how investment data is used to generate client-facing reports and where necessary
• Setting up reports for automation on our proprietary investment reporting platform
• Providing analysis and consultancy to guide the client in developing their investment reporting and web solutions, and working closely to support and manage their ongoing requirements
• Working with our design and front-end teams to ensure that investment reports and websites are on-brand and optimised for use across all devices (desktop, tablet and mobile)

You should be able to demonstrate:

• An impeccable academic record (in any discipline)
• The ability to think logically and take a systematic approach to large, complex workloads and have oversight of multiple concurrent tasks
• An exceptional eye for detail and a willingness to take a pragmatic approach as necessary
• A knack for problem-solving and the readiness to discuss potential solutions as a team
• That you are willing to contribute to the team beyond your daily responsibilities
• Confidence in expressing opinions to groups of people, even when you are new to a topic
• That you enjoy meeting and getting to know new people and are comfortable and confident contacting clients by telephone and meeting them in person
• A genuine interest in exploring and using technology
• Experience with Microsoft Excel (not essential, but beneficial)
• Work experience, either during or after university, is an advantage

We are at a pivotal stage in the development of our business, so there is now a significant opportunity for candidates with the right ambition and enthusiasm to progress rapidly with us. We are committed to the long-term career development of all of our team, so you will be provided with ongoing personal training and mentoring from experienced colleagues.

We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, regardless of race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age.

We are looking for two candidates to start immediately. Please send your CV, the role you are applying for and your availability for interview to Tina Xia, using the email address careers@huguenots.co.uk.

The company

Huguenots has developed an investment reporting platform that generates highly personalised solutions for the fund management industry. Our software enables us to develop and maintain client websites, as well as automating the production of fund-reporting documents.

All clients are assured of the attention to detail, effortless customisation and peace of mind that are hallmarks of a solution crafted by Huguenots.

On a personal level, we are a close-knit team who thrive on collaboration as well as enjoying frequent social events.

Our business has continued to thrive throughout the COVID-19 period – we have won new clients, recruited staff and delivered several significant projects.

Our clients

Huguenots works with fund management clients of all sizes, from start-up boutiques to global asset management firms. One of clients provides financial services, such as pension management, for 12 million UK people.

Recently, Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investment has become a priority for many of our clients. Huguenots has played a crucial role in supporting their endeavours to invest responsibly.

Mission behind the role

We are commencing several greenfield projects as part of a rolling series of major enhancements to our product offering. Alongside significant upgrades to our proprietary fund reporting platform, written in Python/Django, we are looking to significantly evolve the user experience for our customers. This involves the creation of several smaller systems built in a series of microservices, utilising technologies such as Typescript and Kubernetes. If you’re unfamiliar these, there will have an opportunity to learn about them and get involved in these projects.

We are always open to new ideas and approaches, and are looking to recruit a number of talented developers who can bring different experiences and ways of thinking.

There will be opportunities to be involved with all aspects of the development cycle, from designing the architecture to delivering the final products.

What will you do?

You will be encouraged to architect and implement new software solutions, contributing towards the overall structural design and engineering best practice.

In addition to this, you will be involved in maintaining and improving our existing software (written in Python and Django), so that the system can continue to scale as we grow. You will also review other software engineers’ code to provide constructive feedback.

The role involves working closely with the development team, while collaborating with our design, front-end, and client-facing teams. In time, you will be given the opportunity to take on full responsibility for key projects.

What experience do you need?

We are looking for someone with a number of years of development experience.

Essential requirements:

• Exposure to the full product development life-cycle
• 3+ years’ experience with Python and Django in a professional environment
• A strong academic record
• The ability to think logically and take a systematic approach to large, complex tasks, whilst maintaining a keen eye for detail
• An aptitude for problem-solving and proposing creative solutions
• Experience and confidence working as part of a development team
• A self-starting and positive attitude

Desirable:

• Experience with containerisation tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform
• Experience with Typescript/Javascript
• An understanding of cloud technologies and familiarity with the AWS ecosystem

Who will you be working with?

We are a team of smart, creative and dedicated individuals. Our culture celebrates and rewards hard work. We come from a range of different backgrounds, but have a strong sense of camaraderie, enjoying collaborating with one another.

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Best-in-class medical, dental and travel insurance
• Kitchen stocked with organic fruit and yoghurt
• Cycle-to-work scheme
• Thursday company drinks
• Office social events (such as rounders in the park)
• Early finish on Fridays

The company 

Our London-based team of data, digital and design specialists has developed a proprietary investment reporting platform that generates highly personalised solutions for the fund management industry. Clients of all sizes, from start-up boutiques to global asset management firms, are assured of the attention to detail, effortless customisation and peace of mind that are hallmarks of a solution crafted by Huguenots.

Our business has continued to thrive throughout the COVID-19 period – we have recruited new staff, won new clients and delivered several significant projects. We enjoy office life and thrive on in-person collaboration, and on a personal level, we are a close-knit team who enjoy frequent social events.

The role 

As Head of Design and UX you will take on a senior leadership role, reporting directly to the Managing Director, and collaborating with leaders in the Implementation, Engineering and Account Management teams. You will also join our Executive Management team, where you will be expected to give input on the direction of the business as a whole.

We are at a pivotal stage in the development of our business, so there is now a significant opportunity to help us accelerate our growth. This means an active involvement in growing the design function of our team, attracting and retaining top UX and design talent, and employing design systems and technologies that allow us to scale effectively.

The scope and nature of design projects we take on as a business varies greatly between clients and from project to project. Larger clients will often have established brand guidelines for us to work towards and build upon, whereas smaller firms may require us to establish that identity for them. Often, our specialist industry knowledge and flair for creative solutions mean that clients will turn to us over a retained agency or in-house team. Projects will range from fully-fledged corporate websites tailored for a consumer audience, to data-driven widgets or dashboards that will inform professional investor decisions.

As well as leading the design on client projects, you will also take on responsibility for the brand and personality of our own platform, Serpentine, which is to undergo a UI overhaul. As Head of Design and UX, you will be passionate about our product, and will steer us in creating a suite of tools that both clients and internal users alike can fall in love with.

Although a significant part of the role will be to lead and mentor a growing design team, this is not a purely managerial role. We are looking first and foremost for an outstanding designer, who is still excited to get stuck into the minutiae of a new project.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Responsive design for fund management company websites, fund centres, complex web applications, data-visualisation tools, widgets and blogs for a wide range of clients
• Lead, mentor and grow the team, cultivating a culture of collaboration through discussion and sharing of ideas and practices
• Attending client meetings to take briefs and present design concepts
• Strengthen all phases of the design process, including research, conceptual design, prototypes, visual design and usability testing
• Partner closely with Account Management, Implementation and Engineering teams to inform development roadmaps and planning
• Advocate user experience best practices
• Monitor user engagement on our websites and routinely identify areas of improvement
• Serve as a coach and mentor to the Design and UX team, as well as supporting new colleagues from other teams
• Understand what our clients want, what is viable for the business, and what the technical constraints are for a given project

You should be able to demonstrate

• 8+ years experience in UX/UI design
• 3+ years of experience leading a team in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment, balancing multiple projects and priorities
• Excellent visual and interaction design skills, with a portfolio of work that demonstrates this
• A passion and flair for meaningful data visualisation
• Ability to pick up a brief quickly, ask questions early and often, and use evidence/research to challenge us and our clients on key design and UX decisions
• Strong problem-solving capabilities and an analytical, inquisitive mind that welcomes new challenges
• Persuasive written, visual and interpersonal communication skills, with an ability to speak the language of business, product and technology
• Confidence to lead meetings with internal and external stakeholders at a director level

We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, regardless of race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age.
