The Financial Engineering group (part of our Bloomberg Core OTC Derivatives/Structured Notes Product group) is seeking market practitioner oriented Financial Engineers with in-depth product knowledge in at least one asset class (more is better). You will be joining a rapidly expanding specialised area of Bloomberg focused on offering premium structuring, valuation and risk services to our client base.
The candidates would ideally have recent experience at a Dealer (or other top financial institutions) in financial engineering, structuring, and/or trading OTC Derivatives/Structured Notes. Familiarity in bespoke derivatives term sheets, the industry standard valuation models and street practices used for security valuation and portfolio risk analysis is imperative. Experience using Bloomberg, Numerix and other derivative pricing platforms is a plus.
Valuation will rely heavily on the appropriate choice and use of pricing models (combined with appropriate adjustments when necessary). Therefore the candidates must have sufficient understanding and intuitive skills to assess if model results are reasonable. Successful candidates with strong communication skills may engage in a client facing role, (however this is not required for all candidates). The candidates will be working with people spanning the whole spectrum from external clients, and internal sales specialists, to developers and quants. |
