- Deep knowledge and understanding across financial markets (products, pricing models), market risk (oversight and measurement), model assessment and validation
- Graduate and post graduate qualifications in a relevant discipline which may include professional qualifications
- Proficiency in a leading programming language, including experience with developing packages for data analysis, visualisation, and statistical modelling
