There will also be opportunities to collaborate on initiatives on a global scale and refine the role to meet the evolving needs of the firm over time.
Jane Street is a challenging, dynamic place to work with smart and intellectually curious people. Our organisational structure is flat with few titles, and you will have the opportunity to adapt your deep experience in a broad array of human resources disciplines to our distinctive work culture.
