VP Credit Risk Officer (Counterparty Credit) — Senior IC role at a leading Wall Street firm. Poland, 100% remote, contract.
A leading Wall Street firm is looking for a senior credit risk professional to join their Credit Risk Management team, performing independent counterparty credit risk assessment of hedge-fund and financial-institution counterparties. This is a senior individual-contributor role (VP title, no direct reports) — domain expertise over tooling, not a quant or coding seat.
What You’ll Do
→ Perform independent credit analysis of financial-institution and hedge-fund counterparties
→ Review and challenge Front Office credit proposals, underwriting assumptions, and risk ratings
→ Evaluate collateral terms, margining structures, haircuts, and the legal enforceability of credit agreements
→ Monitor approved exposures for credit deterioration and run trigger-based assessments
→ Support portfolio-level analysis: counterparty concentrations, strategy correlations, sector exposures
→ Contribute to portfolio stress testing and scenario analysis
→ Prepare risk dashboards and memoranda for senior management and risk committees
What We’re Looking For
→ 8–10 years in bank credit risk management, counterparty credit risk, hedge-fund risk oversight, or leveraged finance
→ Strong understanding of hedge-fund structures, trading strategies, and financing arrangements
→ Solid grounding in credit risk principles, exposure measurement, and stress testing
→ Advanced analytical and financial skills — able to assess complex balance sheets
→ Excellent written communication — experience producing formal risk memoranda
→ Strong independent judgment and ability to manage senior stakeholders
→ Based in Poland, fully remote
Bonus: prime brokerage or hedge-fund counterparty coverage, derivatives/repo/stock loan experience, SEC 15c3-5 knowledge, MBA/CFA/FRM
