About Our Client

I've partnered with a well-established, globally recognised group with a centralised treasury team based in West London. The team are technically sharp, commercially aware, and play a pivotal role in managing financial risk and liquidity across a complex international footprint.

They've already built strong foundations: a solid TMS, good process automation, and integrated trading platforms like 360T and Bloomberg. This isn't a team playing catch-up, they're positioned to add real value, and they're looking for someone who can bring energy and insight to help shape what comes next.

They have a real openness to new ideas. Whether it's a different way of approaching investment products, or tweaking how reports are built, they genuinely welcome fresh thinking. Add to that a modern hybrid setup (three days a week in the office), and a clear focus on developing top treasury talent, and you've got an environment that supports both immediate learning and long-term growth.

Job Description

This Financial Risk Analyst role sits right at the intersection of front and middle office treasury, supporting the group's hedging activity with a particular focus on FX trading and liquidity investment. It's an opportunity to contribute directly to the execution of financial risk strategies in a fast-paced, policy-driven environment, while gaining hands-on exposure to real trading activity.

You'll be working primarily with USD exposures, but also across Euro and Sterling positions, supporting trade execution and market monitoring. What makes this role stand out is the breadth, beyond just transactional support, you'll be involved in shaping risk and market reporting, with the chance to improve risk management reports

There's a real appetite here for smart innovation, whether that's using data more effectively, enhancing tooling, or just bringing a fresh perspective to how risk is managed. If you're someone with strong commercial awareness, technical curiosity, and the confidence to work to tight deadlines, this could be an excellent move.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist in implementing financial risk management strategies, focusing on FX exposures and liquidity investments.
• Execute trading activity in line with Group policy (after training).
• Support FX operations using 360T and Bloomberg platforms.
• Monitor and manage portfolios, market data, and treasury information.
• Provide analysis on the Group's USD, Euro, and Sterling positions.
• Leverage data systems to enhance financial insight and decision-making.
• Contribute to the development of Python-based reporting tools and identify opportunities for automation or innovation.
• Deliver timely internal and external risk reports, including compliance and consolidation metrics.
• Represent the Financial Risk Management team in internal and external meetings or projects.
• Stay up to date with market trends, investment products, and peer benchmarks to help evolve risk strategy.

You'll be working closely with the Group Treasurer and wider treasury leadership, while collaborating across key internal functions including Treasury Solutions, Financial Reporting, Investor Relations, Accounting, and Corporate Finance. There's also regular interaction with finance and cash teams across the group's operating companies, as well as external relationships with investment banks and other financial institutions.
