  • Identify and assess risks that affect the organization
  • Lead risk measurement in close collaboration with other control functions
  • Maintain the company’s risk tolerance framework and recommend appropriate risk responses
  • Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of risk controls and mitigation strategies
  • Oversee the implementation of risk control measures across departments
  • Provide regular risk reporting to management and the Board of Directors
  • Maintain and continuously improve the organization's risk management framework
  • Promote a risk-aware culture and educate employees on risk management practices
  • Ensure compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards
  • Direct collaboration with supervisory authorities, auditors, partners and clients on issues of risk and internal control.
Requirements
  • Several years of experience in risk management in the securities trading or post-trading area, some of which preferably in a financial market infrastructure and in a leadership role
  • In-depth knowledge of securities trading or post-trading processes is essential
  • Proven experience in implementing risk management frameworks.
  • University degree in finance, economics, business administration or related field required, Master’s degree preferred (equivalent work experience will be considered)
  • Relevant professional certification such as FRM, PRM, CFA or similar are highly desirable
  • Fluency in English and German, both written and spoken, is required
  • Strong analytical and problem solving skills, with strategic thinking and attention to detail
  • Willingness to go the extra mile in a start-up environment
Benefits
  • Annual salary of CHF 180’000 and additional stock appreciation rights to participate in the increase in value of the company
  • Competitive pension plan benefits
  • Be part of a venture in a fast-growing market with the ambition to compete with the world's best
