AVP FX & Commodity P&L / Risk Control (trading floor), Growing IB, Strong total comp recruitment
The role has been created on the back of a 40% growth in its Front Office function over the past two years, so a function that was previously run from overseas has now been brought in to its London office which is becoming its global hub. The necessary frameworks have been put in place, so you are to now run a function that covers PL Attribution, product valuation, risk commentary, PL Explains and some end of day IPV for London market data (there is a separate central IPV team overseas that cover the main part of the function). This is for all of the EMEA FX and Commodities business. In order to develop the function you will have to get your hands dirty in the role by performing its daily responsibilities alongside the VP and assist in growing out the department in line with organisational growth.
The role is based on the trading floor and you are to constantly face off to Head Traders, Business Managers, heads of Finance, COO’s and the regional CEO. We therefore need an individual that is from a strong Product Control, Middle Office or Valuations background, you should currently be an AVP and be from either FX or Commodities in order to effectively work closely with the Head Traders. Any project / change management experience would be seen as being advantageous.
The role is offering a good base salary (they are prepared to be flexible to get the right person) and a particularly strong total compensation package.
