Alex McMurray Reporter

Alex McMurray is journalist for eFinancialCareers specialized in content on fintech, quant trading and technology careers in finance. He has spent four years covering financial services firms from Revolut to Jane Street, mixing in-depth data analysis with information from insider sources.

Alex joined eFinancialCareers as a graduate, having studied English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Surrey. If there's an article on the site about fintech or programming languages, chances are he wrote it (to mixed degrees of success if our comments have anything to say about it).

He also runs content for eFinancialCareers' TikTok platform, which has over 28,000 followers, and its new YouTube channel which has received 29,000 views in its first ten months.

Outside of work, Alex wrestles with the eternal torment of being a Tottenham Hotspur fan, plays Dungeons and Dragons and wakes up at ridiculously early times to go to the gym when nobody's hogging the weights.
