  • Develop and document processes for handling regional market closures, holidays, and disruptions affecting P&L calculations.

  • Design and manage internal controls around automated P&L generation, ensuring compliance with risk management and reporting standards.

  • Work closely with the quant risk team to leverage P&L data for developing single trader and portfolio-level analytics, market exposure analysis, and risk and performance metrics.

  • Strong understanding of financial instruments, pricing methodologies, risk metrics, and market conventions across regions.

  • Proficiency in Python for data analysis and automation.

  • Proficiency in SQL for database management and data querying.

  • Strong quantitative skills and experience working with risk teams to develop analytics and performance metrics at both trader and portfolio levels.

  • Familiarity with Bloomberg, Reuters, or other real-time market data systems.

  • Experience with risk and P&L systems, especially across multi-region time zones, is a plus.

  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a strong attention to detail.
