- At least 6 years’ experience within a financial market quantitative team with a thorough knowledge of financial markets and an understanding of the associated accounting and regulatory expectations. Knowledge of IRRBB models is a plus.
- An excellent tertiary qualification in actuarial, mathematics, econometrics or other related quantitative discipline. A focus on financial mathematics is a plus.
- Excellent written and inter-personal communication skills, particularly the ability to explain complicated issues in an efficient and effective manner. You should have demonstrated an ability to communicate with influence.
- Excellent time management skills, with the ability to work to tight deadlines and deal with changing priorities.
- A dedication to continual improvement and knowledge sharing.
- Delivering or validating financial market models from start to finish. Experience in rates and foreign exchange products is preferred.
