Role Overview

The CRO will own the design and implementation of a holistic risk framework covering portfolio risk, model validation, liquidity, counterparty exposure, and operational risk. The role requires a strong quantitative mindset, robust governance instincts, and the ability to partner closely with trading, engineering, and executive leadership.

Key Responsibilities

Portfolio Risk Management

  • Define and enforce firmwide risk limits across strategies and counterparties.
  • Build real-time and batch risk dashboards for senior leadership.
  • Conduct pre- and post-trade risk analysis, stress testing, and scenario analysis.
  • Oversee automated risk controls and auto-liquidation frameworks.

Independent Model Validation

  • Establish and lead independent model validation across all systematic strategies.
  • Review assumptions, data quality, robustness, and implementation fidelity.
  • Maintain model inventory, approval workflows, and review cycles.

Treasury & Liquidity Oversight

  • Oversee liquidity, collateral, and margin management across venues.
  • Optimize capital deployment and lead balance-sheet hedging analysis.

Risk Governance

  • Lead counterparty and venue risk assessments.
  • Support regulatory and investor due-diligence processes.
  • Partner with engineering to embed risk data pipelines and alerting systems.

Desired Candidate Profile

We are retained by a technology-driven, multi-strategy digital asset hedge fund to appoint a Chief Risk Officer to lead firmwide risk management across all trading and investment activity.

This is a deeply technical role, sitting at the intersection of portfolio risk, model governance, liquidity management, and operational resilience, with a mandate to build institutional-grade risk frameworks across a complex, automated trading environment.
