Your role

Are you adept at risk matters? Are you interested in working in a team of quants and econometricians? Do you know how to work well within a team to develop and deliver solutions? Then we are looking for you to:
• create, develop and maintain methodologies for internal and regulatory stress scenario expansion for UBS
• use techniques from quantitative risk management, statistics, financial econometrics and macroeconometrics to develop, assess, and change models
• implement models in R/Python and produce clear and detailed documentation for regulators across the globe
• bring new quantitative modeling ideas to our team to push ahead key projects within the bank

Your team

You’ll be working in the Scenario Expansion Methodology team in Krakow with members in the US, UK, Switzerland, Poland, and India. Our role is to develop and maintain financial and macroeconometric forecast models that are used to expand stress and baseline scenarios. The results of our models are used to assess the impact of macro-economic and market-shock scenarios on the firm’s profitability and capital adequacy. Our deliveries are key to regulators across the globe, used for accounting standards, and internal capital assessments. The framework captures all risk types across all businesses world-wide.

Your expertise

• a Master's or PhD degree in applied quantitative discipline (e.g. Quantitative Economics, Econometrics, Statistics, Financial Engineering, Computational Science, Quantitative Finance)
• experience in building models from scratch (e.g., time series analysis, linear/non-linear models, Gaussian/non-Gaussian models, parametric/non-parametric models, Bayesian models)
• sound knowledge of statistical and econometric methods and their application
• proficient in programming with statistical software (e.g. Python, R, Matlab, …), previous experience of object oriented programming is a plus - VBA or spreadsheet macros don't count
• strong analytical, conceptual and organizational skills with the ability to work to tight deadlines
• an understanding and interest in economic mechanisms and their influence on financial markets
• great in communicating (and you know how to handle challenging situations)
• a pro-active team-player, but able to complete tasks autonomously
• fluent in English, additional languages are welcome
