It depends... It might mean something or it could mean nothing whatsoever. Lots of people put "Global Head of Whatever" on their CVs/Resumes, so you sorta need to take it with a large pinch of salt.

Thanks. If it's of any assistance, I am asking this specifically of a title used by a large HF (~$15b).
 

To trade heads?

But seriously, to oversee a team of traders and probably trade a bit himself. Further, it depends on the HF's strat as to how much power he actually has, could be a pure execution role.
