VP Quantitative Analyst - Commodities Trading
Posted 14 days 3 hours ago by Barclay Simpson
My client is a premier energy and commodities specialist with a global presence, operating in physical and financial trading, carbon trading, energy infrastructure investment, and risk solutions across all asset classes.
The firm is building out a risk capability for their trading operations in London and is seeking a talented VP level quant, ideally with prior exposure to physical and financial commodity/energy trading, to join a rapidly growing team. This role will focus on the development of market and liquidity risk methodologies, margin/SPAN models, pricing curves, as well as the validation of models developed by the front office.
The role will be dynamic and varied and will provide exposure to all aspects of the firm's commodity trading operations.
The role would suit a quant operating at VP level in a financial institution (bank, hedge fund, commodities house), who is capable of working in an unstructured environment with minimal supervision and strong Python coding skills. Commodity asset class knowledge will be a significant advantage; however, candidates with knowledge of other asset classes will also be considered if they possess strong technical skills.
