Associate, Financial Risk Advisory

Singapore

Overview:

We don’t simply hire employees.  We invest in them.  When you work at Chatham, we empower you — offering professional development opportunities to help you grow in your career, no matter if you've been here for five months or 15 years.  Chatham has worked hard to create a distinct work environment that values people, teamwork, integrity, and client service.  You will have immediate opportunities to partner with talented subject matter experts, work on complex projects, and contribute to the value Chatham delivers every day.

Our Singapore team is growing and looking to hire an Associate, Financial Risk Adviser.  As a financial risk adviser, you will collaborate with other experienced colleagues in managing engagements and client relationships. Clients include general corporates, private equity, or real estate, with a focus on interest rate and currency hedging.   

In this role you will:

  • Develop thoughtful quantitative and qualitative analysis of clients' financial exposures, including interest rates and foreign exchange. Provide advice on risk management strategies via verbal and written explanations of complex subject matter in a thorough but easy-to-digest manner.
  • Execute Foreign Currency and Interest Rate hedge transactions on behalf of clients.
  • Review and negotiate legal documents and manage transaction execution processes involving bilateral negotiations or competitive auctions among multiple counterparties.
  • As an advisor, manage client relationship through delivery of advisory services.
  • Travel periodically to clients in Asia and other Chatham offices for professional development, but the role does not involve frequent business trips.

Contributors to your success:

  • Applicants must be fluent in English. Additional Asian language proficiency is a plus.
  • 4-6 years of relevant professional experience in the financial industry, such as capital market/derivatives desks in banks, or treasury/finance team in corporates.
  • Quantitative Skills: Ability to work with large sets of data with a high attention to detail. Experience with statistical analysis and financial modeling is a plus.
  • The consulting aspect of this role means that communication and interpersonal skills are critical. Ability to communicate complex subject matter effectively, prioritize findings, engage with clients, and deliver effective communication through various formats (i.e. PowerPoint presentations, phone, in-person meetings, email and spreadsheets).
  • Project Management: Ability to prioritize demands, align resources with project deliverables, and communicate progress and expectations.
  • Collaboration: Ability to share information internally, seek out knowledge, partner with stakeholders, and work cohesively across teams.
  • Time management proficiency.
  • Flexibility when priorities change with little notice, and the ability to stay calm and sharp under pressure are desirable traits.

 Your impact:

Our goal is to develop people so that they can achieve greater responsibilities and have impact on those around them, clients, and teammates. Our current opportunities lie within our emerging and rapidly developing service offerings, allowing associates to contribute during the early lifecycle of these services.  Career development opportunities include deep technical expertise in derivatives, client advisory and service delivery, product development, and strategic initiatives.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
