Head of Risk – Commodities & Energy Trading in City of London

Job description

I am seeking an experienced senior risk professional to lead a team in the daily identification, measurement, monitoring, and control of all risk types—credit, market, liquidity, operational, and concentration risks—ensuring robust risk prevention and independent oversight. This pivotal role reports directly to the ACEO (Risk) and the Board, providing strategic advice, challenge, and decision support aligned with group-wide policies.

You will drive the development and implementation of risk management frameworks, maintain strong collaboration with our Holding Company and regulatory bodies, and lead key committees overseeing credit, trading, and procurement risks. Your expertise in financial analysis, regulatory requirements, and risk governance will be critical in guiding business strategy within risk appetites and tolerances, supporting remuneration policies, and managing unexpected major risk events with swift remedial action.

If you bring leadership excellence, a deep understanding of risk management best practices, and experience in commodities or energy markets, we want to hear from you. Step into a role where your insights shape risk culture, influence board decisions, and protect long-term business value.
