 The Position
 
 
 
 As Portfolio Risk Analytics Specialist, you will play a key role in the Risk Department by using your mathematical and coding skills to transform how we model our real-world business so that we can optimize how we hedge and mitigate risks.
 
 
 In this role you won&rsquo;t be working on daily reporting tasks but will spend your time conducting research projects to help us understand and model risks. You will then be expected to turn the results of this research into new analysis tools and models to support decision making and limit risks.
 
 
 Enhancements to existing VaR, Stress Test, and Expected Loss models are a starting point but we are keen to develop further quantitative models and enhance our understanding of statistical methodologies.
 
 
 You will become the owner of the risk models and the key point of contact for any non-linear risks such as options. Over time you will develop financial models for physical assets such as storage, freight, blending and refining.
