Description

A professional financial markets operation in Estonia is seeking an FX Portfolio Trader to manage and monitor foreign-exchange exposure across a diversified portfolio of currency positions.

Rather than focusing solely on individual trade opportunities, this role takes a portfolio-level approach—considering correlation, concentration, liquidity, volatility, hedging requirements, and aggregate risk.

Your Mandate

You will help manage currency exposure while balancing trading opportunities against portfolio-level risk constraints. The position requires strong market judgement, quantitative awareness, and consistent execution discipline.

Core Responsibilities

  • Monitor currency exposures across portfolios and trading books.
  • Analyse major FX pairs, cross-currency relationships, volatility, and market liquidity.
  • Develop and execute portfolio-level FX positioning strategies within approved mandates.
  • Evaluate correlation and concentration risks across currency exposures.
  • Support hedging strategies designed to manage currency risk.
  • Monitor portfolio P&L, drawdown, exposure, volatility, and risk-adjusted performance.
  • Coordinate with risk, treasury, research, and trading-operations teams.
  • Analyse central-bank policy, interest-rate differentials, inflation expectations, and macroeconomic developments.
  • Review portfolio performance and identify opportunities to improve risk-adjusted outcomes.
  • Maintain accurate trading and exposure records.
  • Participate in periodic strategy reviews and portfolio-risk assessments.
  • Provide clear market and portfolio commentary to senior stakeholders.

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in FX trading, portfolio management, treasury, or institutional financial markets.
  • Strong understanding of currency markets and macroeconomic drivers.
  • Practical experience with portfolio construction and FX risk management.
  • Strong knowledge of hedging techniques and exposure management.
  • Ability to interpret market data and translate it into structured trading decisions.
  • Strong quantitative and analytical skills.
  • Experience with Bloomberg, Reuters, trading platforms, or comparable market-data systems is advantageous.
  • Excellent communication and reporting capabilities.
  • High level of professional integrity and process discipline.

Why This Role Is Different

The position combines trading, portfolio management, macroeconomic analysis, and risk management rather than concentrating exclusively on individual transactions.

Ideal Candidate: A disciplined FX professional who understands that successful portfolio management requires both opportunity recognition and rigorous control of aggregate risk.
