An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Prime Brokerage Risk professional to join a growing and highly entrepreneurial financial services platform in London.
This is a front-office aligned role with significant exposure to hedge fund and institutional clients, offering responsibility across risk management, margin methodologies, portfolio analysis, and client engagement. The successful candidate will play a key role in supporting a growing prime brokerage business and helping shape its risk framework and infrastructure.
What we're looking for:
• Recent experience within Prime Brokerage, Equities Financing, Prime Services or a related risk function
• Strong understanding of clearing models, margin methodologies and financing structures
• Experience monitoring portfolio exposures and analysing risk across hedge fund and institutional client portfolios
• Able to interpret data, challenge assumptions and clearly articulate risk models and methodologies
• Hands-on individual who can quickly establish credibility and operate with limited supervision
• Previous experience within a bank or established prime brokerage platform is advantageous
• Python and/or SQL skills would be beneficial, but this is not a heavily quantitative role
The opportunity:
• Join a growing business where you can have a genuine impact
• Work closely with clients, trading, financing, operations and technology teams
• Gain broad exposure across equities, financing and risk management
• Competitive compensation and strong long-term career potential
If you're currently working within Prime Brokerage Risk, Financing Risk, Prime Services, or a related Equities Risk function and are looking for a broader, more commercially focused opportunity, we'd be keen to hear from you.
