Top European investment bank are developing their German operation and require an experienced manager to lead the team forward
My client has created a new role for an experienced market risk manager responsible for the fixed income desk. Sat on the trading floor, you will be the first point of contact for any risk enquiries for all business units within the bank. The group has invested heavily in this division and it is expected that the successful candidate develop the team throughout 2012 and will be given the necessary support to do so.
You will be responsible for developing, though for the most part not building, models that will be rolled out firm wide and take the lead role in implementing Basel II and ICR measures used globally.
The successful candidate is likely to have the following:
• 4-6 years relevant experience and the desire to rapidly move up to senior management level
• Good German language skills would be beneficial
• Masters or equivalent in a quantitative discipline: Math / Economics / Financial engineering
• Demonstrated ability to concurrently manage several large-scale analytic/modeling projects
• Ability to communicate clearly with senior management and traders
• Fundamental understanding of micro and macroeconomic concepts
• Advanced understanding of Basel II and ICR
• Ability to work under pressure and manage time and deliverables in a fast paced environment, front office environment.
This presents an excellent chance for an ambitious market risk manager to experience an accelerated route into senior management. You will be exposed to team members who are considered to be the best in the industry and, as this is a newly created role, gain levels of responsibility and career growth not available with other replacement hire roles that are dominating the market.
