Financial Resource Management Specialist
Jane StreetLondon, England, United Kingdom · Posted 2 months agoDescription
About the Position
We are looking for skilled analysts to join our Finance group. Our team, like the rest of Jane Street, are critical thinkers and problem solvers. We are ultimately responsible for managing the capital base the firm uses for trading. Much of what we do is constrained optimization – working with and providing costs to trading desks, managing our positions across providers subject to a vast set of limits and constraints, and strategizing how to support future growth. We’re also responsible for the modeling, monitoring, operational processes and infrastructure that enable it.
In this role, you’ll work closely with colleagues within the group, with other teams throughout the firm and across offices, and with external counterparties - taking on responsibilities including:
- Monitoring the firm’s capital usage and cost allocation systems, including triaging, escalating, and actioning alerts
- Translating qualitative recommendations into system configuration and parameter changes
- Reconciling internal and external margin and billing models, including liaising with our external counterparts
- Executing various funding and financing trades - such as FX balance management, equity position financing, and funding treasuries
- Operating firm-wide position management systems that shape our book based on various costs and constraints
- Maintaining and improving desk infrastructure by automating workflows, building new monitoring and visualization tools, and supporting ad-hoc requests from the team
- Identifying material financing cost inefficiencies and establishing mechanisms to optimize them going forward
There is ample room for growth in this position. As you gain experience in day-to-day operations, you'll independently make high-value, time-sensitive decisions, take increased responsibility for key processes, and design and implement long-term improvements. You’ll begin to think through how we prepare and respond to exceptional events and market volatility.
About You
