$95k - $150k

Geneva Trading LLC USA

We are seeking a dynamic on-site Risk Analyst to join our proprietary trading firm. This role is centered on real-time monitoring of trading activity, with a particular focus on futures markets. The ideal candidate will bring a strong understanding of trading environments and risk exposure, and will thrive in a fast‑paced, high‑pressure setting. Key Responsibilities Monitor live trading activity across a broad spectrum of asset classes to identify and elevate risk exposures and breaches in real time. Collaborate closely with traders, operations, and technology teams. Interpret trading behavior and market movements to assess potential risk implications. Support the development and refinement of risk monitoring tools and dashboards. Contribute to post‑trade reviews and risk incident analysis. Assist in the enforcement of trading limits and risk policies. What We’re Looking For Industry Experience: Prior experience in a trading, risk, or operations role within a proprietary trading firm, hedge fund, or investment bank is preferred but not essential. Market Knowledge: Strong understanding of futures markets and trading mechanics. Calm Under Pressure: Ability to remain composed and make sound judgments in a fast‑moving, high‑stakes environment. Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills; able to clearly articulate risk concerns to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders. Collaborative mindset: This is a key requirement. The ideal candidate will have a willingness to work closely with cross‑functional teams. Analytical Thinking: Strong attention to detail and the ability to interpret complex trading data quickly and accurately. Technical Skills: While advanced programming or quantitative modeling is not required, comfort with using trading and risk platforms, Excel, and basic data tools is expected. Able to work in the office 5 days a week. Preferred Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, or a related field. Familiarity with risk frameworks and trading compliance standards. Experience working in a 24/5 or global trading environment is a plus. Compensation Base Salary Range: $95,000 - $150,000, plus eligibility for a performance‑based bonus. Final compensation will be determined based on the candidate’s skills, experience, education, and qualifications. In addition to base salary, Geneva Trading offers a competitive total rewards package, including a comprehensive benefits program.
