Responsibilities

There are largely four businesses under Institutional Securities Group (ISG): Investment Banking, Global Capital Markets (GCM), Sales & Trading, and Research. Within Sales & Trading, Financial Resources and Strategy (FRS) sits alongside the Institutional Equities Division (IED), Fixed Income Division (FID), and ISG Risk Management.

FRS is a centralized function responsible for secured funding, collateral management, margin optimization, CCP (Central Clearing Counterparty) relationship management, and managing capital / balance sheet / liquidity across ISG. Because FRS works with business heads to develop a near and medium-term strategy for growth and optimal use of the Firm’s financial resources, members of the FRS team work on projects across divisions, asset-classes, and regions. These projects have direct and meaningful impact on ISG and the Firm’s strategic direction.

Resource Management: closely integrated with FID, IED, and GCM enabling/pricing/deploying resources as well as partnering to structure transactions to maximize returns and support strategic business initiatives globally. The team manages the front-to-back ISG Financials, working to ensure efficiency, optimal resource usage and operating leverage, across its balance sheet, capital, liquidity, and expense base.

Margin and Capital Optimization: responsible for margin and capital optimization for both cleared and uncleared Firm trading activity for all cash, derivatives, and securities financing transactions across all asset classes. Partner with traders in executing derivatives trades by pricing funding and capital impacts as well as execution of post-trade optimization. Engage with CCPs to establish new clearing services which, are often, capital / liquidity efficient.

Funding and Collateral Optimization: finance ISG using Repurchase Agreements, Total Return Swaps, and Securities Lending products. Responsible for ISG’s secured funding framework, including impacts to liquidity and capital requirements, and assisting trader execution within this framework. Optimize various collateral margin postings, while minimizing cost and pursuing revenue opportunities.

Salary is competitive with excellent benefits.
