Counterparty Credit Risk – Tier 1 Bank – VP – 140k recruitment

My client, an award winning Tier 1 Investment Bank, is going through huge growth in all areas of its Front office derivatives platform on a global basis with particular focus on Commodities and Complex derivative products.

They have always had excellent ratings from the FSA and is therefore growing their FO Counterparty Credit Risk department with a number of key hires in the team. You will work directly with the Traders advising on hot areas such as Basel III, Basel 2.5, CVA and IMM/RepoVar reviews. This role would have global exposure (but no need to travel) as its central hub is in London. Candidates with counterparty credit experience is ideal, but if you have strong Market/Credit Risk experience looking at Commodities or Exotics trades would be strongly considered.

As there is an emphasis of working with the traders on a day to day basis, my client has an active policy of helping candidates move directly into front office positions within the bank in areas such as CVA for example - there is also rapid career progression within the team and scope for international moves with my clients coverage in Asia and the US. My client is committed to getting the best talent and will pay market leading packages to attract the best in this high demand area. They are actively looking to interview candidates now in a streamlined process and will make decisions quickly for those who excel. So for a confidential discussion feel free to call me or send your cv asap
