Junior Investment Risk Analyst

Investment Risk Jobs
  • London
  • up to £70k

A top-tier buy-side firm, known for its strength in Fixed Income, is looking to add a junior Investment Risk Analyst to their high-performing team.

Why this role?

  • Work with the best: Join a team led by exceptional talent — including a hiring manager who is genuinely committed to developing junior talent. A brilliant opportunity to learn, grow, and progress.
  • Front-office exposure: Sitting within the first line of defence and reporting into the CIO, not the CRO — your work focuses on ex-ante and pre-trade risk, delivering real-time insights and adding tangible value to investment decisions.
  • Freedom to focus on impact: Routine reporting is handled by a separate team, freeing you up to spend more time partnering with Portfolio Managers and delivering insight.
  • Excellent culture: Collaborative, stable, and forward-thinking — the team is known for its supportive and positive working environment.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Day-to-day risk management of a set of portfolios
  • Direct support to Portfolio Managers
  • Work alongside the Global Head of Investment Risk
  • Use a robust platform of analytical tools to generate insight

What we’re looking for:

  • Experience as an Investment Risk Analyst
  • Solid understanding of Fixed Income instruments
  • Ability to code in Python
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
