My client is a premier energy and commodities specialist with a global presence, operating in physical and financial trading, carbon trading, energy infrastructure investment, and risk solutions across all asset classes.

The firm is building out a risk capability for their trading operations in London. They are seeking a talented VP-level quant, ideally with prior exposure to physical and financial commodity/energy trading, to join a rapidly growing team. This role will focus on developing market and liquidity risk methodologies, margin/SPAN models, pricing curves, and validating models developed by the front office.

The role is dynamic and varied, providing exposure to all aspects of the firm's commodity trading operations.

The ideal candidate is a VP-level quant in a financial institution (bank, hedge fund, commodities house), capable of working in an unstructured environment with minimal supervision, and possessing strong Python coding skills. Commodity asset class knowledge is advantageous, but candidates with expertise in other asset classes and strong technical skills will also be considered.
