Company Overview

The hiring organisation operates in the financial services and foreign exchange sector, with an emphasis on understanding international currency markets and supporting informed financial decision-making. Its research activities cover developed and emerging economies, monetary policy developments, and the economic factors influencing exchange rates.

Role Summary

The Senior FX Research Analyst will lead in-depth research on G10 currencies and selected emerging-market currencies, producing independent analysis of macroeconomic trends, central bank policy, and exchange-rate dynamics. The role requires the ability to build coherent currency views from multiple data sources and communicate conclusions to professional stakeholders.

• Produce detailed currency strategy reports and scenario-based market outlooks.

• Assess the potential FX implications of geopolitical events, commodity-price movements, and global economic shocks.

• Build and maintain economic models, forecasting tools, and currency valuation frameworks.

• Evaluate forecast performance and refine analytical assumptions using historical data.

• Present research findings and defend analytical conclusions in discussions with senior stakeholders.

• Identify changes in macroeconomic conditions that may require revisions to existing currency outlooks.

• Maintain consistent research standards, transparent methodologies, and reliable documentation.

Requirements and Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Economics, Finance, Econometrics, or a related quantitative discipline; a postgraduate qualification is an advantage.

• Substantial professional experience in FX research, macro strategy, currency analysis, or a related financial-market role.

• Strong understanding of G10 currencies, emerging markets, central bank policy, and international capital flows.

• Experience with econometric analysis, forecasting methods, and financial modelling.

• Advanced Excel skills and proficiency in Python, R, or comparable analytical tools.

• Ability to interpret complex economic information and present clear, evidence-based conclusions.

• Excellent research writing, stakeholder communication, and independent problem-solving skills.

Benefits

• Fully remote work from within Estonia.

• Opportunity to conduct research across developed and emerging currency markets.

• Scope to contribute to research methodology and analytical frameworks.

• Collaboration with experienced financial-market professionals.

• Ongoing opportunities for technical and professional development.
