Job Overview:

We are seeking a skilled Risk Analyst to act as a crucial link between advanced risk analytics and practical investment decisions. This role involves leveraging the BlackRock Aladdin ecosystem and custom quantitative models to provide a comprehensive “Whole Portfolio View.” The primary objective is to ensure Portfolio Managers have complete visibility into their exposures, ranging from broad market shifts to individual stock-level risks.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Advanced Analytics & Modelling: Utilize Aladdin Risk to assess risk factors across equities, fixed income, and alternative investments. Supplement platform data by constructing large-scale covariance matrices to decompose factor returns (e.g., Value, Momentum, Quality).
  • Portfolio Oversight: Provide daily transparency into portfolio positions, performance, and risk attribution. Differentiate between risks arising from intentional factor bets and unintended sector/stock concentrations.
  • Scenario Analysis & Stress Testing: Design and execute simulations of various market scenarios to understand potential portfolio impacts, enabling Portfolio Managers to effectively manage tail risks.
  • Data Integrity & Centralization: Maintain a single source of truth by consolidating risk data from both internally and externally managed assets.
  • Investment Optimization: Collaborate with Portfolio Managers to conduct scenario analysis and utilize optimization frameworks to refine portfolio construction strategies.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Proven experience as a Risk Analyst or in a similar quantitative role.
  • Strong understanding of financial markets, investment strategies, and risk management principles.
  • Proficiency with the BlackRock Aladdin ecosystem is highly desirable.
  • Experience in building custom quantitative models and large-scale covariance matrices.
  • Familiarity with factor investing and risk decomposition techniques.
  • Experience with scenario analysis and stress testing methodologies.
  • Excellent data analysis and interpretation skills.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related quantitative field. A Master’s degree or CFA charter is a plus.
