What We Do
Our Founder and Chief Investment Officer, Paul Tudor Jones II, is one of the pioneers of the modern-day hedge fund industry. Paul began his career in the cotton pits before forming the Tudor Group in 1980. Paul was eager to create a firm differentiated by a steadfast dedication to client objectives and guided by strong ethics and values.
In the nearly four decades since, Tudor has grown into a global investment firm with offices in Connecticut, New York, Palm Beach, London, Singapore and Sydney. While we are best known for our rich history in discretionary macro trading, we also have significant experience and capabilities in model-driven and systematic investment approaches. We believe that firms must continually innovate in order to compete in rapidly evolving markets. As such, we commit significant resources to research and development across a variety of strategies in order to expand our edge. Ultimately, we seek to generate consistent returns for both client and proprietary capital through the use of best-in-class research, trading, and investment techniques.
Tudor understands that organizational excellence begins with people. We seek highly motivated professionals who share a passion for the markets and for testing the boundaries of conventional wisdom. We are self starters who are entrepreneurial, deeply engaged in the markets, pioneers in the use of technology, performance-driven, and prudent in the face of risk.
