ABOUT THIS POSITION:

Your Contribution

As a key strategist within the Securities Division, you will be essential to our trading operations. Your responsibilities may include developing innovative derivative pricing models and empirical frameworks to enhance our understanding of market dynamics, or creating automated trading systems that benefit both the firm and its clientele. You may also engage in assessing exposures and structuring transactions tailored to client requirements, or in designing sophisticated parallel computing systems, electronic trading solutions, and advanced algorithms. Throughout the Securities Division, our strategists employ quantitative and technological methodologies to address intricate business challenges.

Our Role

THE PRIME SERVICES RISK STRATEGY TEAM

Our international team is a crucial component of the Prime Brokerage and Clearing Services sectors under the Prime Services umbrella within the Securities Division. We influence significant business decisions and manage essential systems.

Collaborating with risk managers, our team is tasked with developing and maintaining stress testing protocols across various asset classes, as well as modeling margin methodologies and calculating margin requirements. These advanced models enable us to provide a diverse array of financing solutions and risk management frameworks, assisting clients in navigating various market conditions.

We take pride in our collaborative spirit across global teams to devise solutions that foster our business's success worldwide. Our team members come from diverse quantitative academic and cultural backgrounds, which enhances our ability to generate innovative solutions for complex business issues.

If you seek a high-impact role that allows you to leverage your robust quantitative and communication abilities, our Risk Strategy team presents an ideal opportunity.

Your primary responsibilities will encompass identifying risk factors associated with different asset classes (Equities/Credit/FX/Rates/Commodities) across various client strategies, calibrating these risk factors for integration into the risk-based margin model, developing models to quantify risk, consolidating various risk metrics into a cohesive cross-asset margin model, enhancing risk management platforms, creating tools for in-depth risk analysis, and proposing enhancements to existing models.

You will collaborate closely with prime brokerage risk managers and the global Risk Strategy team, establishing and nurturing partnerships with colleagues across the Global Markets Division. This role offers a broad scope that rewards multitasking, initiative, and effective execution. You will not only directly influence key revenue streams within the Prime Services business but also have the opportunity to identify additional revenue-generating prospects.
