Macro Risk Analyst

Macro Risk Analyst (AVP/VP)

We have partnered with a Tier-1 Global Asset Manager (Institutional Investor) to hire a Macro Risk Analyst within their Global Macro team, based in Singapore. This is a high-impact role suited to a junior-to-mid level investment professional with strong market risk knowledge and direct experience in macro products - either through investment risk roles on the buy-side or prior exposure as a risk-taking professional.

The successful candidate will work closely with senior portfolio managers and in-business risk leaders to support oversight of macro exposures across developed and emerging markets. With visibility to senior stakeholders and involvement in strategic capital allocation, this opportunity offers strong growth potential for candidates seeking a seat at the intersection of risk and investment decision-making.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with senior risk managers and portfolio leads to monitor and assess risk exposures across macro strategies, including stress testing and scenario analysis
• Conduct regular portfolio reviews, supporting the development of internal risk views across global macro exposures
• Contribute to the build-out of internal risk frameworks and processes, integrating best practices across the investment risk discipline
• Participate in investment discussions and committees, presenting independent views on positions and broader risk themes
• Assist in enhancing portfolio construction and capital allocation processes, working collaboratively with cross-functional investment teams
• Engage with external stakeholders and help evolve the internal capabilities of the risk function

Requirements & Qualifications

• 6–10 years of relevant experience in investment risk, market risk, portfolio analysis, or trading, ideally within a buy-side asset manager or hedge fund (dynamic sell-side professionals will also be considered)
• Strong understanding of macro products, with the ability to evaluate complex exposures across rates, FX, and EM strategies
• Comfortable engaging with senior investment professionals and contributing to high-level portfolio discussions
• Markets-oriented with the technical ability to perform detailed risk analyses, but not focused on quant/model-building work.
• Collaborative, team-first mindset with a proactive approach to problem-solving and internal partnership.
• Strong communication skills, with the confidence to present risk views and recommendations across multiple levels of seniority
