Two Sigma’s London pay hits £500k average

Two Sigma increased average employee compensation at one of its London businesses by more than a third in 2025, even as the number of staff at the entity fell, according to a report by eFinancial Careers.

In 2025, Two Sigma experienced a significant increase in average employee compensation in London, with the average salary reaching £503,000, a 34% rise from £377,000 in the previous year, according to eFinancial Careers. Despite a decrease in the number of staff from 93 to 85 employees, the firm continued to invest heavily in its London-based workforce.

Two Sigma International, one of the firm's entities, provides investment management and administrative services to various hedge funds and affiliated companies. The decline in staff may not necessarily mean that eight employees left the firm, as some may have transferred to another London entity. Two Sigma Securities UK, another entity, focuses on proprietary trading and had an average compensation of £608,000 for its 14 employees in 2024.

The company is actively recruiting in London, having moved into a new office near Liverpool Street in March.
