Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced, detail-oriented Senior Futures Risk Analyst to join our Futures Commission Merchant ("FCM") risk management team in Jersey City/Dallas. This individual-contributor role is responsible for monitoring client and proprietary risk exposures, administering trading and credit controls, evaluating margin and collateral adequacy, and escalating emerging market- and credit-risk issues in a timely manner.

The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience in futures clearing or FCM risk operations, including intraday margin monitoring, position-limit oversight, credit controls, and risk escalation procedures. This role will work closely with Clearing Operations, Compliance, Finance, Technology, and business stakeholders to support a disciplined and scalable futures risk-control environment.

Primary Responsibilities
  • Monitor real-time and end-of-day market, credit, margin, and liquidity exposures across client accounts and proprietary positions.
  • Execute established risk-monitoring procedures; identify, investigate, document, and elevate risk-limit breaches and unusual account activity promptly.
  • Administer CME Globex Credit Controls ("GC2"), include setting and maintaining approved pre-trade exposure and maximum-order-quantity limits for futures and options.
  • Evaluate client margin adequacy, including initial and maintenance margin requirements, variation margin, intraday deficits, and collateral coverage.
  • Monitor stress-testing and Value-at-Risk ("VaR") results; identify portfolio vulnerabilities and elevate material adverse-risk scenarios.
  • Monitor exchange-imposed and firm-specific position limits, accountability levels, and reportable-position thresholds; investigate and elevate potential breaches.
  • Assess the quality, eligibility, concentration, liquidity, valuation, and applicable haircuts of margin collateral.
  • Investigate risk alerts that may arise from stale prices, erroneous ticks, feed disruptions, position-data issues, or other market-data-integrity concerns; distinguish genuine risk events from data-driven false signals.
  • Elevate risk escalation procedures, including trading restrictions, credit-limit changes, and support for partial or full account liquidations in accordance with delegated authority and firm policy.
  • Monitor upcoming market-risk events - including economic releases, geopolitical developments, contract expirations, delivery periods, and market holidays and recommend appropriate adjustments to risk parameters or monitoring thresholds.
  • Partner with Clearing Operations, Compliance, Finance, Technology, and the business to resolve risk issues and improve control effectiveness.
  • Prepare daily risk reports, exception logs, incident summaries, and management reporting.
  • Participate in risk-control testing, procedure development, system enhancements, and regulatory or internal-audit requests.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Risk Management, or a related discipline.
  • 3-7 years of relevant experience in futures risk management, clearing operations, margin operations, or credit risk at an FCM, clearing firm, futures broker, or exchange.
  • Strong understanding of futures contract specifications, settlement and delivery mechanics, and product-specific risk characteristics across equity index, fixed-income, commodity, FX, and options-on-futures products.
  • Practical knowledge of initial margin, maintenance margin, variation margin, intraday margin calls, and end-of-day margin processes.
  • Experience monitoring client portfolios for market, credit, margin, concentration, and liquidity risk.
  • Familiarity with futures margin methodologies, including SPAN, CME CORE, or comparable risk-based margin frameworks.
  • Working knowledge of exchange and firm position limits, accountability levels, reportable-position requirements, and account aggregation concepts.
  • Experience interpreting…
