  • Work closely with the traders to develop risk/reward profiles and hedging strategies covering Equity and Equity Derivatives trading
  • Analyze and oversee Equities trading activities across the US
  • Enforce and enhance Market Risk limits
  • Highlight concentrated risk positions, and work with the front office to escalate risks to senior management
  • Perform scenario analysis and stress testing
  • Develop decks and informational documents to be used by senior leadership and the risk committee

Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of Market Risk Management experience plus relevant experience in trading, sales, and product control
  • Deep knowledge of equities and equity derivatives
