Top global investment bank requires team lead for market risk management and analysis team to cover wide range of asset classes
The team works closely with senior Market Risk Officers and partners within the Front Office to produce comprehensive risk reports for senior management within the IB and Group. The role will involve regular and Ad-Hoc analysis of Greeks, VaR, and Stress. The ability to understand and more importantly articulate key risks, trends and their causes is key.
There is a strong focus on minimising process related work in favour of richer rich analysis. The person therefore needs to enjoy identifying opportunities to improve processes and the ability to articulate these to our partners in IT and Risk Control Operations. This role would suit someone with strong leadership skills, a flair for analysing risk, and good communication skills in order to face off to senior management.
The successful candidate is likely to have the following background and skill set:
- Significant experience in financial markets
- Experience of leading and managing a team in an IB environment
- Exposure to a range of different asset classes including fixed income, equity and FX
- A positive, motivational and can-do attitude is a must
- A broad knowledge across financial products and asset classes and a understanding of VaR and Stress and their use in the risk management area
- A understanding of capital regulations and how these apply to Market Risk
- Ideally a proven track record in managing people
- Sufficient experience and confidence to face off to senior management
