As a Graduate Risk Analyst, you’ll operate at the beating heart of our business: in the dealing room of IMC’s Amsterdam office. Your work will support IMC’s critical day-to-day risk management activities, including the monitoring and analysis of our markets, as well as our credit, liquidity, and operational risks.

Later, your IMC journey will continue with a three-week Global Trainee Program led by our seasoned engineers and traders. During this traineeship, you’ll connect with graduates from all three IMC regions: Europe, the US, and Asia-Pacific. You’ll dive deeper into IMC’s operations, learn the basics of trading, and explore options theory. Back at your local office, you’ll receive ongoing support from a dedicated mentor. What happens next is up to you!

Your Core Responsibilities 

  • Become an expert in options, financial markets, and how IMC applies algorithmic trading as a market maker
  • Contribute to the ongoing development of IMC’s proprietary risk management systems, together with our Engineers
  • Analyse developments in the markets in which we trade and identify risks and opportunities
  • Be an integral part of your team by advising on limit requests, monitoring intraday and overnight risks, and discussing key exposures with our trading desks

Your Skills And Experiences

  • Recent graduates with up to two years of relevant experience (prior experience in the world of derivatives trading is a plus!)
  • An academic background in Mathematics, Physics and/or Econometrics or a related field
  • Proficiency in a programming language is preferred (Python, MATLAB or R)
  • First-class analytical skills and a desire to solve complicated problems creatively
  • A genuine interest in financial markets

Please note: If you have already applied for this position during the current recruitment season and were not selected, you may reapply when the next recruitment season begins in September 2025. We encourage you to focus on enhancing your skillset before reapplying.
