Commodities Risk Manager Job Description

Hudson River Trading is seeking a skilled Commodities Risk Manager to join our team in NYC. As a key member of our Risk team, you will be responsible for designing, improving, managing, and communicating market and liquidity risk for commodities instruments and strategies.

You will have a broad mandate to own and manage all aspects of commodities trading risk faced by the firm, while gaining exposure to the fast-paced world of automated trading alongside exceptionally talented people.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Design new risk controls for commodities trading strategies that appropriately control market, operational, funding, and liquidity risk without disrupting trading activity.
  • Understand and advise senior management on the nuances of proposed new commodities strategies; investigate and onboard new strategies, assess their risk profile, and make recommendations on both the suitability and feasibility of any new strategies for the firm.
  • Analyze historical measures to calibrate thresholds.
  • Design and build risk models to reflect the idiosyncrasies of commodities products.
  • Monitor market, operational, and liquidity risk; partner with operations and execution trading teams to investigate and resolve risk limit breaches.
  • Collaborate with Operations to develop and implement new risk monitoring tools.
  • Evaluate bespoke trading opportunities.
  • Work on tactical projects with Finance, Operations, and Engineering.
Requirements:
  • 7+ years of experience as a risk manager covering commodities in an investment bank, hedge fund, or asset manager.
  • Strong understanding of the commodities landscape, including futures and physical trading, as well as relative value hedge fund strategies.
  • B.S. in mathematics, physics, economics, computer science, electrical engineering, or statistics.
  • Working knowledge of Python, Linux, and SQL.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders across the firm, including traders, operations, and other risk managers.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Culture:

Hudson River Trading brings a scientific approach to trading financial products. We have built one of the world's most sophisticated computing environments for research and development. Our researchers are at the forefront of innovation in the world of algorithmic trading.

We welcome a variety of expertise: mathematics and computer science, physics and engineering, media and tech. We're a community of self-starters who are motivated by the excitement of being at the cutting edge of automation in every part of our organization - from trading, to business operations, to recruiting and beyond. We value openness and transparency, and celebrate great ideas from HRT veterans and new hires alike. At HRT, we're friends and colleagues - whether we are sharing a meal, playing the latest board game, or writing elegant code. We embrace a culture of togetherness that extends far beyond the walls of our office.

We're proud of our diverse staff; we have offices all over the globe and benefit from our varied and unique perspectives. HRT is an equal opportunity employer; so whoever you are, we'd love to get to know you.
