Job Description
THE COMPANY AND SITUATION OVERVIEW:
One of the biggest names in the world of professional services is launching a brand new modelling team producing a unique service offering for which there is currently no equivalent in existence. This will consist of advisory services relating to Credit Portfolio Modelling for the financial sector, truly a Greenfield situation! For this senior role they require an impressive multi-skilled individual with strong experience in the Credit Portfolio sphere and a good track record in business development to help take the product to market.
EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:
The following experience and attributes are essential for this role:
• A good degree in applied mathematics /engineering/physics or a related discipline
• A track record in Business Development, turning leads and contacts into business won
• Strong experience in Credit Portfolio Management gained in financial institutions
• Previous experience of Credit Portfolio Modelling in a financial environment
• Demonstrable evidence of \'new thinking\' in Credit Portfolio Modelling
• Evidence of published articles and thought leadership
• Thorough knowledge of Economic Capital, Value at Risk, Credit derivative pricing, stress testing, correlation modelling, portfolio optimisation and rating agency models
• Excellent Excel and PowerPoint abilities
Please note the above experience is essential: You require all of the above to be eligible for this role.
Desirable, but not essential, are any of the following:
• PhD
• Experience of KMV Portfolio Manager
• Knowledge of Basel II
• C++, VBA or database skills
THE ROLE:
In this role, you would be reporting directly to the director running the team. He is seeking a further senior manager with the appropriate mathematical, credit modelling and business development background to help him with presenting the team’s unique product and service offering to clients.
THE OPPORTUNITY:
Partner! No, seriously! This team is producing products and services that no-one else is. This is a unique offering in cutting-edge technologies for which there is no equivalent or competition elsewhere. If you make a success of this, the team will want to grow quickly and expand globally. In this role, you would be the most senior person in the team other than the director currently running it. Consequently, the prospects are to step up to Director and then Partner in relatively quick succession. There is no “glass ceiling†here and nothing preventing there being multiple partners in the one team.
