As a Market, Rate and Liquidity Risk Modelling team leader, you work in close collaboration with our risk management teams to meet the needs of the business sectors, and to design, manage and support the entire lifecycle of the models used to measure and manage financial risks. Your mandate specifically covers market risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk models used for business operations, the management of associated risks and compliance with regulatory requirements. In collaboration with your partners in risk management, the business sector and treasury, you’ll ensure the transition from a detailed understanding of needs to the design of innovative, high-value analytical solutions. You contribute to the strategic direction of the risk function by influencing the evolution of quantitative approaches and analytical capabilities to support Desjardins Group’s priorities. Your leadership helps ensure effective work planning, strong business relationships and tangible results that meet the strategic and regulatory objectives of the Risk Management Executive Division as well as the Market Risk and Analytics Division. You lead a team of professionals specializing in quantitative modelling applied to financial risk management. You play a key role in coordinating methodological work, model governance and interactions with internal and external partners, including the lines of defence, regulatory authorities and auditors. You are also called upon to break down and explain complex quantitative and methodological concepts to business partners, committees and senior management to support decision-making. The successful candidate should have excellent planning abilities and strong leadership skills. They must also thrive in a complex and highly regulated environment that’s always changing. More specifically, you will be required to:

  • Lead and mobilize a team of specialists in quantitative modelling and financial risk management

  • Support teams in the development, implementation, calibration, monitoring and evolution of market, rate and liquidity risk models
  • Support team members with their professional growth and skills development
  • Maintain and enforce model governance throughout lifecycles, including the development, validation, implementation, monitoring and removal of models
  • Oversee the methodologies used for the valorization of financial and derivative products, market risk measures (VaR, sensitivities, stress tests, etc.), interest-rate risk (prepayments, rate guarantees, etc.) and liquidity risk (survival period, projection ratios, etc.)
  • Develop and maintain methodological roadmaps in connection with business priorities, technological transformations and regulatory requirements
  • Influence the evolution of quantitative approaches and the analytical capabilities of the risk management function to support Desjardins’s strategic directions
  • Oversee the modeling work in support of stress tests, risk appetite assessments, financial planning exercises and regulatory capital calculations
  • Break down and explain complex methodological and quantitative issues for business partners, committees and senior management to support decision-making
  • Work closely with the second and third lines of defence to ensure work is carried out according to plan and on track to meet target deadlines
  • Participate in discussions with regulatory authorities such as the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) and external auditors, particularly in the context of modelling tasks and capital requirements

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
