You will act as a recognized subject matter authority within the team, shaping client strategies and contributing directly to the commercial performance of Citi's fixed income franchise.

 

Responsibilities

• Build customized back-tests and quantitative analysis to support client pitches, transaction decisions, and ongoing portfolio assessment.
• Drive pre-trade and post-sales activity by working closely with institutional sales teams to develop client-ready materials and lead client-facing presentations and meetings.
• Collaborate with Legal, Compliance, Market Risk, Credit Risk, Finance, and Audit functions to maintain robust governance and controls across all structured transactions.
• Assess the risk and reward profile of transactions with integrity, ensuring sound judgement and consideration for Citi's reputation in every business decision.

 

Required Qualifications & Skills

• 6 to 12 years of structuring experience gained within a financial institution, with a clear focus on fixed income or derivative products.
• Deep technical knowledge of complex derivative products, including their features, risk characteristics, pricing mechanics, and client applications.
• Quantitative and analytical capability, with the ability to model payoffs, run risk scenarios, and draw actionable conclusions from complex data sets.
• Demonstrated ability to translate client needs into structured financial solutions, working collaboratively across sales, trading, and control functions.
• Clear and concise written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex ideas credibly to both clients and internal stakeholders.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification in a relevant field.

 

Beneficial Skills & Qualifications

• Experience structuring corporate derivative solutions across both rates and credit, with a track record of client-facing delivery.
• Exposure to securities financing structures such as repo or total return swaps.
• Familiarity with repack structures, particularly in the context of US insurance client mandates.
• Exposure to structured notes, with specific experience in credit linked notes.
• Master's degree or postgraduate qualification in a quantitative or finance-related discipline.
