  • Risk Management & Controls
  • Adhere to VaR, duration, and stop‑loss limits;

  • Liaise with operations for timely settlement, margin postings, and collateral management.
  • Produce daily P&L attribution and variance reports for senior management.
  • Market Connectivity & Relationships
  • Maintain strong relationships with dealing desks at primary dealers and banks.
  • Stay abreast of RBI auctions, primary issuance calendars, and monetary policy developments.
  • Represent Sovereign Global at industry forums, bond market conferences, and RBI consultations.

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Finance, Economics, or related discipline.
  • 2–5 years’ trading experience on NDS‑OM in G‑Secs and SDLs;
  • IRF exposure a plus.

  • Deep understanding of India’s government bond market structure, repo, and collateral frameworks.
  • Strong quantitative skills, with proficiency in Excel and trading platforms (Bloomberg, Omnesys).
  • Excellent market judgment, risk-awareness, and decision-making under pressure.
  • What We Offer :

  • Ownership & Profit Sharing : Alignment of interests through desk‑level P&L participation.
