Senior Quant Risk Analyst

WEBB Traders is seeking a Senior Quant Risk Analyst to join their fast-growing proprietary trading team in Amsterdam. The primary objective of this role is to design and implement a world-class risk management strategy that supports the firm's global market-making and algorithmic trading activities in cash equities and derivatives. On a day-to-day basis, you will monitor real-time trading books, build and optimize risk limits and monitoring tools, and ensure operational resilience within the defined risk appetite. You will act as a strong countervailing force to a high-performing trading desk while collaborating closely with engineers and traders to elevate risk controls into strategic advantages. Quantitative methodologies applied in this role include the analysis of clearing models, margin calculations, Value-at-Risk (VaR) estimation, and risk-modeling of execution algorithms. Technically, the role requires strong programming skills in Python and SQL to develop automated tactical tooling, perform comprehensive data analysis, and establish future-proof control frameworks.
