About the Role
This is a hands-on, high-visibility role sitting at the heart of the bank's market risk control. You'll monitor the branch's market risk exposures day to day, make sure the numbers are calculated and reported accurately, and help sharpen the risk systems, methodologies and reporting that sit behind them. Expect real, varied work: daily limit monitoring, stress testing, counterparty and country risk oversight, exposure calculations (VaR, DV01, FX) and continuous improvements to how the bank measures and reports risk.
