Investing
Senior Risk Analyst
Dubai, UAE · Full-time
The Senior Risk Analyst is the check on every position the fund holds. You will own sizing, correlation, and concentration analysis across the full portfolio, and you will be the one who flags a position as too large before it becomes a problem, not after.
What you'll do
- Own position sizing and portfolio-level concentration monitoring on an ongoing basis
- Model how a proposed position changes the fund's correlation and drawdown exposure
- Flag risk concerns directly to the board ahead of scheduled reviews
- Maintain and evolve the risk framework the fund uses to evaluate new positions
- Review historical drawdowns to stress-test whether the current framework would catch them
What we're looking for
- 7+ years of experience in portfolio risk, quantitative risk management, or a related role
- Strong command of correlation, volatility, and drawdown analysis across mixed asset classes
- Comfortable challenging a position the investing team wants to take
- Precise, unambiguous communication; a risk flag needs to be understood immediately
- Bachelor's degree in finance, mathematics, or a related quantitative field
