Qualifications:
  • B.S. in mathematics, physics, economics, computer science, electrical engineering, or statistics.
  • 3+ years of experience as a risk manager focusing on equity arbitrage trading at an investment bank, hedge fund, proprietary trading firm, or asset manager.
  • Solid understanding of equity risk models and equity portfolio risk.
  • Working knowledge of equity arbitrage strategies such as event-driven strategies, intraday arbitrage trading, and other equity hedge fund strategies.
  • Professional programming experience is required (Python preferred).
  • Ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders across the firm, including traders, operations, and other risk managers.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Compensation:

Annual base salary range of $150,000. Pay (base and bonus) may vary depending on job-related skills and experience. A sign-on and discretionary performance bonus may be provided as part of the total compensation package, in addition to company-paid medical and other benefits.
