About Polymer

Polymer Capital Management is a market-neutral, multi-manager investment platform focused on Asia. Our goal is to discover and nurture the region's top investment talent by combining established institutional support with extensive local financial market knowledge. We were founded in partnership with PAG, one of the world's largest Asia-focused alternative asset managers, and we have been operational since 2019.

Role Summary

This role sits within risk management team and focuses on direct portfolio coverage of investment teams. The Risk Manager will work closely with Portfolio Managers through bi-weekly risk reviews and ongoing dialogue, providing oversight and analytical insights to support disciplined risk-taking and capital deployment across the platform.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as risk manager for assigned Portfolio Managers, conducting bi-weekly portfolio risk reviews and ongoing discussions on positioning, performance, and risk exposures.
  • Provide risk oversight of PM portfolios, including monitoring exposures, drawdowns, concentration, liquidity, and factor risks.
  • Perform daily monitoring of portfolio risk metrics and P&L drivers, identifying emerging risks and communicating actionable insights to PMs and senior risk leadership.
  • Prepare and deliver structured risk review materials for bi-weekly PM meetings, covering performance attribution, exposure changes, stress testing, and portfolio positioning.
  • Challenge portfolio construction and risk-taking where appropriate, ensuring alignment with the firm’s risk framework and capital allocation guidelines.
  • Conduct ad-hoc portfolio analysis to evaluate trade ideas, new strategies, or significant changes in positioning.
  • Develop and enhance quantitative risk analytics and reporting tools, including factor exposure analysis, scenario testing, and portfolio diagnostics.
  • Ensure ongoing compliance with risk limits and investment guidelines, escalating breaches and working with PMs to resolve issues efficiently.
  • Partner closely with Trading, Compliance, Technology, and Middle Office teams to address operational or risk issues affecting portfolio management.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of the firm’s risk framework, methodologies, and reporting processes.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in risk management, portfolio analytics, or a related role on the buy-side, preferably within a multi-manager or pod-style hedge fund platform.
  • Strong understanding of hedge fund strategies including long/short equities, macro, or multi-asset portfolios, with experience analyzing portfolio exposures and P&L drivers.
  • Experience engaging directly with Portfolio Managers in risk discussions, including reviewing positioning, exposures, and performance attribution.
  • Solid knowledge of portfolio risk analytics, including factor models, scenario analysis, stress testing, and portfolio construction concepts.
  • Strong quantitative and analytical skills, with the ability to translate complex analytics into clear and actionable insights.
  • Programming proficiency in Python and strong Excel skills; experience with data analysis and visualization tools is highly desirable.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively challenge and influence investment professionals.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to operate in a fast-paced trading environment.

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

That is how we know which CVs get called.
