The Role
We are seeking an exceptionally talented individual to join our risk team to be a key member focused on risk modeling and monitoring in support of senior leadership in making capital allocation and firm risk management decisions. A successful candidate will help to build and maintain analytical framework used to gain insights into risk drivers of our portfolios, as well as communicate those insights to senior management.
What you’ll do
The Risk Associate will be responsible for understanding our trading strategies and making sure that the risk inherent in those strategies is captured correctly in our risk models. To accomplish this goal, you will work with Technology, external vendors, COO teams, strategy quants and strategy risk coverage teams to prioritize work needed to correctly capture risk at the enterprise level. When external solutions fail to fit enterprise requirements, you will be responsible for creating our own models and solutions.
You will also be responsible for generating insights into the key drivers of firmwide risk and communicating them to the broader management team. You will also work on incorporating them into models and analytics to mitigate the risk of outsized drawdowns and to help inform the firm’s capital allocation process.
