Our client, a newly established proprietary trading firm operating as an AI-first organization, is building its risk function with the same rigor as its technology and data infrastructure.
Precision is non-negotiable. You will be responsible for safeguarding the firm’s capital stability, ensuring resilience across all market conditions — from routine volatility to extreme stress scenarios.
This is a foundational role. You will build the risk function from the ground up: designing frameworks, defining limits, implementing monitoring systems, and embedding a culture of disciplined risk management across the organization. Your work will directly protect the firm’s long-term sustainability and growth.
Job Responsibilities
- Oversee financial risk, exposures, and leverage from trading activity.
- Develop risk models, stress tests, and early-warning mechanisms.
- Work with tech teams to ensure system stability during high volatility.
Requirements
- 3+ years in financial risk management (Forex, Stocks, or Futures).
- Deep understanding of quantitative models and capital markets.
- Ability to make fast, well-reasoned decisions under pressure.
