Hiring stages

We keep our process simple, transparent, and respectful of your time.

Here's what to expect:

• Application screening:

We carefully review all applications to identify candidates whose background aligns with the role's requirements. You'll receive a timely and transparent update on your application status.

• Video intro + role fit questionnaire:

A short async step - no scheduling required. You'll record a brief video introduction and complete a written questionnaire. This helps us understand who you are, your relevant background, and how your experience aligns with the role without either side committing to a live call upfront.

• Discovery HR Interview

A conversation with our HR team focused on company and culture match. We'll walk you through how PFM works, what remote ownership looks like in practice, and what success in this role looks like. You'll have plenty of space to ask questions and share your goals.

• Real-world task

A short, scoped exercise based on real PFM data challenges - not abstract problems. This stage is designed to give both sides a realistic view of the work before committing further.

• A deep-dive Professional interview

You will meet the Head of Data & Analytics at PFM to focus on your technical expertise, analytical methodology, and how you approach real business problems. This is the decisive conversation on domain skills and role-specific experience.

• Functional Interview

A broader professional conversation with a senior member of the team: We'll explore your analytical thinking, how you communicate insights to different audiences, how you handle ambiguity, and how you operate within cross-functional environments.

• Peer & values conversation

A conversation with a peer from across the team focused on values, culture, and how you work best. You'll have plenty of space to ask questions and get a real feel for life at PFM.

If there's a strong mutual match, we start with an informal conversation to align on expectations, then follow up with a formal written offer. Full transparency throughout, and time for you to make an informed decision.

To keep things fully transparent and mutually fair, we complete a reference check before the formal offer is extended. No surprises - just part of how we make careful, informed decisions on both sides.

Before applying take into account that:

▸ If you don't meet every single qualification but believe you can excel in the role based on what it requires - we encourage you to apply.

▸ We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.

▸ Even if it's not listed as a formal requirement, we truly value candidates who have clear familiarity with the prop trading industry and us, our mission and what we do.
