About the Position
We are looking for a strategic thinker and enthusiastic networker who can help us plan and execute a range of campus recruiting initiatives to attract outstanding interns and full-time employees across multiple countries and business areas. While some professional recruiting experience and knowledge of the recruiting landscape across the APAC region would be ideal, it is not a prerequisite to thrive in this role.
Our team has a long track record of hiring talented people who are interested in recruiting and coaching them to their full potential. From your first day, regardless of your starting point, we will teach you the ins and outs of recruiting at Jane Street—and we’ll continue to support your professional growth over time with on-the-job training and mentorship.
To start, your day-to-day will involve planning and attending various types of recruiting events (e.g., on-campus, virtual, and in-office), building and maintaining relationships with universities and external partners and communicating with prospective candidates. We will rely on your expertise in event design and coordination, along with your experience managing partnerships and sponsorships, to bring fresh ideas to our approach and help us anticipate where and how we need to engage to find the next wave of exceptional talent. This will require finding solutions to big, interesting problems while also getting the little details right.
This role sits on our Early Careers Partnerships & Initiatives (ECPI) team, which is part of our broader global Campus Recruiting team. Our ECPI team is a highly supportive, collaborative, and inventive group of people that spans across our New York, London, Singapore, and Hong Kong offices.
Like our Recruiting team at large, we believe that Jane Street’s greatest assets are the people working around us. We love what we do, and perhaps more importantly, we love who we work with. This camaraderie fuels our passion for helping other teams at Jane Street find and hire great teammates of their own.
About You
- 3+ years of professional experience, ideally in recruiting or a related field

- Organised self-starter who can handle competing priorities and manage their workload
- Approachable team player with a “no job too small” attitude
- Clear communicator with colleagues, candidates, and external partners
- Strong event-planning skills; excited to organize and participate in a range of recruiting events, and enthusiastic about travelling to attend recruiting events on a regular basis
- Curious about the operations of the firm and how recruiting fits into the bigger picture

What We Do
Jane Street works differently. As a liquidity provider and market maker, we trade on more than 200 trading venues across 45 countries and help form the backbone of global markets. Our approach is rooted in technology and rigorous quantitative analysis, but our success is driven by our people.
Our bright, beautiful offices in the heart of New York, London, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam are open and buzzing with conversation. We come from many backgrounds and encourage travel between offices to share perspectives. Some of our best ideas come from bumping into a visiting colleague at the office coffee bar.
Markets move fast. Staying competitive as we’ve grown has required constant invention—of new trading strategies, technology, and processes. We’ve found this is easier when you hire humble, kind people. They tend to help each other, and prioritize teamwork over titles.
We invest heavily in teaching and training. There’s a library and a classroom in every office, because deepening your understanding of something is considered real work. Guest lectures, classes, and conferences round out the intellectual exchanges that happen every day.
People grow into long careers at Jane Street because there are always new and interesting problems to solve, systems to build, and theories to test. More than twenty years after our founding, it still feels like we’re just getting started.
