Jobbeschreibung

About the role:

• As Senior Liquidity Risk Manager, you will own the design, implementation, and ongoing oversight of Upvest’s liquidity risk framework — a critical function for a BaFin-regulated investment firm operating at scale across Europe.

• You will work closely with Treasury, Finance, and senior leadership to ensure Upvest maintains a robust and compliant liquidity position as we expand across Europe.

• This is a high-impact, highly visible role at the intersection of regulatory compliance, strategic finance, and operational excellence — you’ll be central to how Upvest manages risk at the next stage of growth.

What you’ll do:

• Quantitative Analytics: Lead advanced quantitative modeling and analyze complex risk data to provide strategic insights on liquidity, funding, and stress testing (ILAAP).

• Risk Governance: Design and implement comprehensive mitigation strategies and robust risk controls across our core business processes.

• Projects & Tooling: Own high-impact risk projects, including the architecture and deployment of next-generation risk models and tools—initially for Financial and Non-Financial domains, with a clear path into the broader universe of Risk Management.

• Stakeholder Communication: Serve as the primary expert for financial risk inquiries, translating complex quantitative findings for senior leadership, external partners, and regulators (BaFin).

• Leadership & Collaboration: Mentor junior team members and drive cross-departmental initiatives (IT GRC, Outsourcing, Finance, Compliance, Operations) to scale our risk infrastructure.

What you bring:

• Experience: 5+ years in risk management or treasury within a regulated bank or financial institution.

• Regulatory Expertise: Strong understanding of European/BaFin regulatory frameworks (CRR, LCR, NSFR, ILAAP, MaRisk).

• Technical & Modeling Skills: Hands‑on experience building or operating quantitative risk models and cash flow forecasting tools (SQL/Python skills are a plus).

• Project & Cross-Functional Power: Proven track record of driving complex projects across domains like IT GRC, Outsourcing, or Compliance.

• Leadership & Communication: Exceptional ability to mentor junior colleagues and articulate complex financial risks clearly to C-level executives and external partners.

• Languages: Fluency in English; German language skills are a strong advantage.

It’s great if you have:

• Experience bridging the gap between Financial and Non-Financial/Operational Risk frameworks.

• Prior experience in a high-growth fintech scale‑up environment.

How we Upvest in you:

• Best-in-class AI tools: Every Upvenger has €20,000 per year to spend on the best AI tools available — so you're always working with the most powerful models and tooling on the market.

• Impact-driven work: We’re building the infrastructure that will power the future of investing in Europe. It’s complex, ambitious, and meaningful. You’ll work with modern technologies and create something entirely new. No legacy systems, no limits.

• Wellbeing: Recharge with 30 days of annual leave and maintain a healthy lifestyle with sports benefits. Access confidential professional coaching and enjoy the flexibility to work remotely abroad for up to 183 days a year. Recharge with UpRest, a one-month fully paid sabbatical after every 4 years of working at Upvest.

• Development: Growth is in our DNA. Each Upvenger has access to a personal development budget and the freedom to decide how to use it.

• Flexible work environment: Work from any of our hubs in Berlin, London or Tallinn hybrid or remotely across Europe, depending on the role. We give you the choice and budget to work where you’re most comfortable and productive, either at home or in the office. You choose.

• Compensation and equity: We believe that all Upvengers contribute to our success and deserve a competitive, above-market salary and a participation in our employee equity program.

• Team celebrations: Participate in company-wide events, such as UpFest, dinners, offsites and our Holiday party, to connect with colleagues and celebrate our achievements.

• Inclusion: We’re committed to a culture where everyone belongs and thrives. Our Employee Resources Groups foster inclusion and connection, like Upfem for our female Upvengers, or UpVergent supporting neurodivergent Upvengers and allies.

• Make it easy for others. We simplify the complex and act with the best intentions.

• Own the outcome. We are proactive, fast and confident to get the job done, valuing progress over perfection.
