4 weeks ago


London, United Kingdom NatWest Markets Full time

Our people work differently depending on their jobs and needs. From hybrid working to flexible hours, we have plenty of options that help our people to thrive.

This role is based in the United Kingdom and as such all normal working days must be carried out in the United Kingdom.

Join us as a Rates Trading Technical Specialist
- We’ll look to you to drive and shape end-to-end solutions and translate problems and opportunities into high quality outcomes
- Working within Rates Trading, you’ll be leading others to deliver high quality analytical input to support the development and implementation of innovative processes and problem resolution, both immediate and longer term
- Gain valuable exposure across the Markets business, and hone your technical expertise as you advance your career in this high-profile role

**What you'll do**:
As a Rates Trading Technical Specialist, you’ll be overseeing appropriate technical solutions for programmes and platforms with expertise to meet business requirements in accordance with business-wide change standards. You’ll use your expertise to serve as an integral part of the Rates business and its risk management activities, a trusted partner collaborating with the team to ensure smooth operations and deliver favourable business outcomes.

You’ll also be leading and overseeing high quality technical analysis, design and delivery of technology and quantitative solutions or components, including guidance, development, configuration and management services for technologies, models, platforms and products.

Day-to-day, you’ll be:

- Building, managing and maintaining a positive working relationship with stakeholders and third-party suppliers across multiple franchises and functions
- Capturing, validating, and documenting complex business requirements, making sure they are in line with key strategic principles
- Utilising our standard processes by understanding the development lifecycles and minimum mandatory requirements
- Articulating and quantifying technical impacts in a tangible manner, which allows stakeholders to make rapid and informed decisions

The skills you'll need

You’ll be highly skilled at delivering with urgency while remaining aware of and aligned to the bigger strategic picture. Ideally, you’ll have experience of trading a derivatives book, data analysis and programming, contextual knowledge such as Value at Risk, the regulatory capital regime and Fundamental Review of the Trading Book, with an understanding of Quantitative Analytics models for interest rates and related products, but this is not essential.

You’ll also demonstrate:

- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
- Strong organisational and planning skills
- The ability to adapt to difficult and challenging situations
- A high degree of pro-activity in proposing and delivering solutions
- The capacity both to draw on and to lead the thinking of others
- The ability to recognise conflicting priorities and target win-win solutions
