Intelligence Analyst

About the Point72 Intelligence team:

The Intelligence team strives to set the industry standard for holistic surveillance by proactively identifying, monitoring, and assessing various sources of compliance risk using proprietary tools and specialized tradecraft. We support senior management by providing strategic assessments, actionable recommendations, and real-time issue escalations. At Point72, Intelligence analysts are focused internally and answer human-centered questions by combining substantive research methods with data analysis and subject-matter expertise. We convey complex, evidence-based insights orally and in writing, often while working with incomplete information, to help contextualize information for our internal consumers. Intelligence also monitors employee activity for evidence of violations of applicable federal securities laws, internal compliance policies and procedures, and relevant rules and regulations enforced by the SEC, FINRA, and other organizations.

 

What makes our team special?

We have a diverse team of analysts who each bring unique experience and perspective to the table. We use our differences to our collective benefit and constantly learn from each other. We appreciate that no two analysts have the same professional skills and interests, and we pride ourselves on providing ample opportunity for training and career development. We support and encourage each other as we push ourselves to learn new things.

 

As an Intelligence Analyst at Point72, you will:

  • produce risk assessments and conduct investigations;
  • monitor employee communications for potential violations of relevant securities laws, rules, regulations, and Firm policies, and escalate potential issues;
  • conduct routine trade surveillance, which includes analyzing employee trading activity;
  • leverage resources, technology, and information to protect the Firm’s reputation and minimize risk.

 

You will also have opportunities to work on other projects, such as:

  • brief Firm CCO and CSO on key findings from risk assessments;
  • respond to information requests from financial regulators and other external parties;
  • ad hoc taskings from members of the senior management team;
  • participate in/lead trainings and other professional development efforts.

 

To succeed as an Intelligence analyst at Point72, you must also prioritize our values:  

  • Integrity: we demonstrate the highest standards of ethics and integrity. Our work is truthful, direct, and unbiased. We protect sensitive and confidential information and exercise discretion in all aspects of our work.
  • Teamwork: we collaborate and support each other to accomplish our goals. We push each other to be better because we are only as strong as our weakest member.
  • Respect: we have built a respectful team culture centered on open communication, sharing, listening, and recognition of team members at all levels.
  • Innovation and Excellence: we don’t settle and we don’t believe in “good enough”. We bring our best effort every day and are relentless about improvement.
  • Courage: we are not afraid to fail. We produce difficult and high stakes work in an environment with a high degree of uncertainty.
  • Curiosity: We always ask “why”? We don’t accept the first answer or the easy answer; our goal is to understand. We don’t just report information; we put information into context and provide insight and analysis.

 

Qualifications:

We hire candidates with a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds; many have prior experience working in the US Intelligence Community, but some come from the private sector or join soon after completing graduate or professional school. We expect you to be excited and willing to put in the effort required to quickly learn about the industry, but no prior experience in finance is required.     

 

Specifically, you will need:

  • a bachelor’s degree and two or more years of experience working as an intelligence analyst, investigator, or in another analytical role, or;
  • a graduate or professional degree in a relevant subject, and;
  • strong analytical and problem solving skills;
  • proven effectiveness in written and verbal communication;
  • the ability to exercise discretion while working with highly sensitive information;
  • commitment to the highest ethical standards.

 

We take care of our people:

We invest in our people, their careers, their health, and their well-being. We want you to concentrate on success and leave the rest to us. When you work here, we provide:
