GSC Partners is seeking a quantitative analyst, a collateralized debt obligation analyst and an analyst to cover consumer and mortgage asset-backed securities. A headhunter familiar with the search said the new personnel will work in the New York office on new funds the $8 billion hedge fund and private equity firm plans to roll out. One of the funds will focus on corporate debt and equity in leveraged and distressed markets. Others will likely focus on asset-backed securities, structured credit and mortgage-related securities. A GSC official declined to comment.
