About the role

The Head of Risk at Caely Group will be instrumental in designing, building, and leading an end-to-end risk management framework covering market, credit, liquidity, and operational risks across all trading activities, specifically focusing on renewables certificates and other commodity-linked instruments.

Key responsibilities include leading the setting of risk limits, real-time exposure monitoring, managing counterparty and position limits, and enhancing risk measurement systems. The role also involves driving improvements in risk analytics, stress testing, and scenario analysis to support firm-wide decision-making, ensuring regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement of risk infrastructure and controls. Strong expertise in financial markets, risk modeling (including VaR analysis), and close collaboration with trading, quant, and technology teams are essential.
