• Work alongside trading to ensuring such solutions are structured in a thoughtful manner and make sense for the firm from a risk/reward perspective;
• Work with other key internal stakeholders (including legal, accounting, operations and tax) to build robust and suitable solutions that take into account idiosyncratic regulatory environments in the different jurisdictions we operate in;
• Project-manage complex transactions, including taking them through various internal committees, in order to get them across the finish line.

• Ability to work on long term projects as well as being able to perform some tasks under pressure in the fast-paced environment;
• Strong written/verbal communication skills, being able to communicate complex and abstract ideas in a simple and intuitive way;
