Job Description

Join our Capital and Aggregate Risk team and play a key role in providing valuable insights across Macquarie's aggregate risk profile, risk appetite calibration and financial strength using both the Enterprise-Wide Stress Testing and Economic Capital frameworks.

While Macquarie offers hybrid working for many of our roles, this role does require 3 days a week in our advertised location.

You will play a key role in monitoring, forecasting and reporting aggregate risk across our portfolios, and will develop new approaches and models to drive forward looking insights for the firm and inform how we define our risk appetite. The role offers plenty of exposure and the opportunity to collaborate with global stakeholders across the organisation, including all of Macquarie's operating businesses, Risk, Finance and Treasury teams, including engagement with senior management.

What you offer

• Post-graduate working experience in a related role or one which provides for transferable skills within a financial institution, consultancy practice, regulatory body or rating agency
• An academic background in economics, finance, mathematics or a related discipline
• Keen interest in financial markets, including current and prospective macro-economic, financial, commodity and asset management market trends
• Experience with data and task automation through programming (Python and PowerBI preferable)
• Strong numerical, analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Passion for working collaboratively, with strong communication and presentation skills
• Familiarity with wholesale and/or counterparty credit risk exposure modelling techniques (desirable)
• Familiarity with regulatory expectations across stress testing, ICAAP and model risk management (desirable)

We love hearing from anyone inspired to build a better future with us, if you're excited about the role or working at Macquarie we encourage you to apply.
