About the job

Are you interested in gaining a comprehensive understanding of a risk department in a leading financial institution? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join our dynamic Financial Risk team from our headquarters in Hellerup.

We are looking for a committed and motivated colleague to support the ongoing development of Saxo’s financial risk management and risk control framework, including reporting and 2nd line risk management analysis.

Responsibilities
