Senior Market Risk Analyst LNG

The Role

What is the role?

The individual is responsible for reviewing and providing assurance on the reasonableness of the overall book representation of the Shell LNG business, ensuring that the price risk management activities of the desk are captured timely within the trading systems and that the resultant pricing exposures carry the relevant fair values consistent with internal mark to market standards. 

The individual is charged with understanding how the Shell LNG businesses generate returns, what resources are consumed in the process, what price risks are taken and associated trading strategies.  The individual will need to be able to distill the key drivers of value generation and explain pricing exposures and P&L generated by the desks.  This requires close engagement with Commercial stakeholders as they start up in new markets and develop their business strategies. 

The individual will need to work with Commercial stakeholders in different markets to understand market fundamentals and be able to provide an independent assessment of appropriate marks for book representation, some of which may be illiquid markets.

The individual will need to develop and execute fit-for-purpose risk control framework and processes for the entities.  Effective collaboration with Commercial and Finance stakeholders and offshore teams is required for delivery of the controls. 

Strong technical skills (trading system knowledge and market risk functional competencies) are key as the individual will need to participate in trading system implementation projects to shape and execute market risk requirements (e.g. develop and implement forward price curves in trading system).  Close collaboration with IT and other teams is required for such projects.   

The individual will also need to coach and guide junior team members (some of whom will not be in the same office location).  Strong interpersonal skills will be important to provide effective coaching towards the overall risk team objectives in support of business outcomes.


What we need from you?

We are keen to hear from candidates with the following experience and qualifications:

  • Degree in a quantitative discipline, preferably in Accounting, Business/Commerce or a related field

  • Strong understanding of trading, operations, risk and mid/back office business processes, policies, procedures and controls.

  • Ability to perform under tight deadlines in a very fast-paced trading environment

  • Ability to multitask with a high level of attention to detail and accuracy

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills and an ability to build and maintain positive stakeholder relationships

  • Strong trading systems knowledge.  Trading systems implementation experience will be an advantage.

  • A team player with the capability in working with virtual teams

  • An innovative place to work
