Expert cdevelopers required for new mathematical modelling t
THE COMPANY AND SITUATION OVERVIEW:
One of the biggest names in the world of professional services is launching a brand new modelling team producing a unique service offering for which there is currently no equivalent in existence. This will consist of advisory services relating to Credit Portfolio Modelling for the financial sector, truly a Greenfield situation! For this purpose they require a highly experienced C++ Developer, however this is a Senior Manager position with business development and team leading responsibilities in addition.
Being a new team, they require a Senior Manager who is still technically hands-on and still prepared to "get their hands dirty", as it were.
EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:
Due to the seniority of this role and extent of opportunity inherent in it, the following attributes and experience are essential:
* A good first degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics or a Mathematics-related subject
* A strong mathematical background
* A minimum of 8 years experience (can include academic experience) in mathematical programming in C++. Please note that non-mathematical C++ coding experience (i.e. code maintenance) is not suitable.
* The majority of your C++ experience needs to have been for the purpose of Financial Modelling/Mathematical Modelling
* At least some of your C++ experience needs to have been in the Banking sector
* At least some of your C++ experience needs to have been gained in a Credit Environment. By this we mean in a credit portfolio context in a financial institution
* VBA experience
* Database skills including the use of STL
Please note the above experience is essential: You require all of the above to be eligible for this role. I'm sorry, but contractors need not apply. Only those with a history of permanent employment will be considered.
Desirable, but not essential, are any of the following:
* A mathematical PhD or a PhD in Engineering or Physics
* Knowledge of KMV Portfolio Manager
* Knowledge of Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG) libraries
* Previous experience of building Credit Portfolio Models
THE ROLE:
Your role would consist of a mix of developing a suite of Credit Portfolio models and marketing activities with new and existing clients. Other responsibilities will include, but are not limited to: delivering client projects, providing a high quality advisory service, leading teams, thought leadership, networking events and conferences.
THE OPPORTUNITY:
Huge! Compelling! Exciting! For starters, this is not a financial institution, this is a consultancy pitching TO financial clients, so come and protect yourself from the credit crunch here. Seriously! They are amenable to refugees of the current market conditions, so if you are currently working for a bank and have found momentum has dried up, this could be for you. As mentioned, this is a brand new team and a Greenfield situation with no competition but with a considerable budget and huge support for its launch, along with fast-track career development, in which you will gain exposure to a wide variety of financial sector clients.
Salary: Max GBP85,500 plus excellent bonus and benefits.
