What are the responsibilities and job description for the Equity Analyst position at Susquehanna International Group, LLP?
Overview
As an Equity Analyst on Susquehanna's Research team, you will partner with our senior analysts and traders to identify investment opportunities. Research analysts provide in-depth country and sector-level analysis and provide opinions as new information emerges throughout the trading day.

This role provides the unique opportunity to combine the quantitative aspects of finance with creative problem solving in order to develop trade ideas in a fast-paced proprietary trading environment.
At Susquehanna, we place a high value on education and development, especially for recent graduates. You will experience this dedication to training firsthand as you work collaboratively with the research analysts and traders on your desk to gain the practical exposure needed to perform your daily responsibilities. You will also participate in classroom education where you will learn about options and the decision-making strategies that our traders employ.
