About the Team
The Brokerage Risk Operations team monitors and remediates market and credit risks in client self-directed accounts on a daily basis, responding to changing market conditions. The team also oversees non-margin delinquent accounts, ensuring positions with cash debit balances are closed promptly, and cross-account offsets are executed before transferring accounts to collections.
We are seeking a Senior Associate Derivative Risk Remediation to support day-to-day functions within Brokerage Risk Operations. This role involves executing risk remediation activities for complex trading products, including margin lending and various complex option derivative strategies (e.g., covered calls, secured puts, spreads, and naked strategy), in accordance with established policies. As our business expands into additional complex derivatives, the team is expected to grow to maintain comprehensive risk coverage. Ultimately, the successful candidate will serve as the execution arm for policies set by cross-functional brokerage stakeholders.
