Description:

GRM – We make risk manageable
Group Risk Management (GRM) supports Atradius in optimising its risk profile by providing quantitative models, analyses, and advisory services. It enables the business to identify, assess, and manage risks, ensuring that decisions are taken with a clear understanding of risk–return trade-offs. Within GRM, Corporate Risk Management (CRM) is the unit responsible for the day-to-day execution of the risk management function. Core activities include the development and maintenance of capital and pricing models, the conduct of risk analyses, the support of governance and control frameworks, and the reporting of risk to senior management.

CRM provides information, tools, and advisory services across the organisation and covers both quantitative and qualitative aspects of risk management. Its role includes measuring and explaining Atradius’ risk profile and assessing solvency needs, both currently and on a forward‑looking basis. CRM’s Pricing, Governance, Execution & Reporting team is currently looking for a Senior Quantitative Analyst with a passion for coding.

You act as the team‑internal centre of expertise for coding and contribute actively to developing, maintaining, and improving our code base in R/ RShiny, including production code and reference implementations.

You enjoy coding and are willing to spend a good part of your time developing robust and maintainable analytical tools and applications. You act as coach and mentor for your colleagues, helping them to grow their technical skills and you contribute to establishing and applying best practices within the team.

You will work closely with other specialists and units and be embedded in an international, culturally diverse team of quantitative, financial, and risk management experts. This will enable you to contribute where the business relies on your expertise and to further develop both professionally and personally.

• You bring excellent analytical and problem‑solving skills. You are able to bridge the gap between quantitative analysis, technical implementation, and business interpretation.
