About the role

We're looking for an Operational Risk Manager to join IMC's Operational Risk Management (ORM) team and lead operational risk frameworks and prudential risk across our European offices.

The key focus areas for this role are split between operational risk and prudential risk. Operational risk covers the Key Control Framework (KCF), Risk Control Self-Assessments (RCSA), risk surveys, risk culture, and Business Continuity Planning (BCP). Prudential risk focuses on IFR/IFD regulatory frameworks including the Internal Capital Adequacy and Risk Assessment (ICARA) process, Pillar 3 disclosures, prudential reporting, and participation in IFR-related working groups across associations (EPTA, APT) and regulators (FCA, DNB).

You will partner with Trading, Technology, Compliance, and other teams across the organization to ensure risk controls are appropriately embedded in systems and processes. The role reports to the European Head of Risk and is based in Amsterdam, with regular travel across our European offices (London, Zug, Aarhus).

  • Lead ongoing IFR/IFD prudential risk management for Amsterdam and London entities
  • Own the Internal Capital Adequacy and Risk Assessment (ICARA) process, Pillar 3 disclosures, and prudential reporting for both jurisdictions
  • Participate in IFR-related working groups across associations (EPTA, APT) and engage with regulators (FCA, DNB) on prudential risk matters

Your Skills and Experience:

  • At least 5+ years of relevant operational & prudential risk management experience in financial services or trading environments
  • Proven experience interpreting prudential risk regulations, translating them into practical implementation, and understanding how they impact the business (IFR/IFD experience preferred)
  • Plus when direct experience with ICARA processes, Pillar 3 disclosures, and prudential reporting
  • Demonstrated experience developing and implementing Operational Risk frameworks, including RCSA and Key Control frameworks
  • Understanding of financial markets, trading operations, and associated risk exposures
  • Strong analytical skills with attention to detail and ability to work with complex regulatory requirements
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence and engage credibly at all levels of the organization
  • Leadership capabilities with ability to develop and mentor team members
  • Academic background in a relevant field (finance, risk management, economics, or related disciplines)
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
