Coins.ph, the Philippines' most established crypto brand with 18+ million users, is seeking an experienced Financial Risk Officer to join its Risk Management team. The company is fully regulated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and holds both Virtual Currency and Electronic Money Issuer licenses—the first crypto-based company in Asia to achieve this dual regulatory status.
In this hands-on role, you will independently identify, measure, monitor, and report on market and liquidity risk exposures across Coins.ph's treasury and digital asset activities. Your work will protect the company's balance sheet and customer funds while bridging traditional banking risk discipline with crypto-enabled platform realities.
Key responsibilities include:
**Risk Identification & Measurement:** Identify and assess risk profiles across market, liquidity, and digital asset exposures (on- and off-balance sheet). Monitor market risk on trading and treasury positions using VaR, stressed VaR, and sensitivity analysis. Perform back-testing, stress testing, and exception analysis, escalating limit breaches per governance requirements. Measure and monitor liquidity risk including cash flow projections, funding concentration analysis, and liquidity coverage across fiat and digital holdings. Conduct interest rate stress testing and scenario analysis.
**Risk Management Strategy & Controls:** Develop, implement, and refine market and liquidity risk management strategies, policies, and frameworks. Design and maintain internal and operational controls for treasury and digital asset operations. Assess exposures against Board-approved risk appetite limits and regulatory thresholds, escalating material breaches and emerging concerns. Support the design of risk methodologies as the product suite evolves.
**Data Analysis & Reporting:** Analyze financial data, market trends, and portfolio performance to identify risks and opportunities using financial modeling. Prepare risk reports and dashboards for Senior Management and the Risk Committee. Track key risk indicators (KRIs) and support regulatory reporting to the BSP and other authorities.
**Compliance & Governance:** Ensure risk practices comply with BSP regulations, AMLC requirements, and applicable Philippine and international standards for EMIs and VASPs. Partner with Compliance, Finance, Audit, and Legal teams. Stay current on regulatory developments affecting digital assets, e-money, and payments in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
**Crisis & Incident Management:** Develop and execute contingency plans for financial emergencies, market dislocations, and crypto volatility scenarios. Support ad hoc risk investigations and special projects.
**Requirements:**
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, Mathematics, or related field
- 3–5 years of experience in market risk, liquidity risk, treasury risk, or related financial risk management within banking, fintech, or financial services
- Exposure to or strong interest in digital assets/cryptocurrency markets (a plus)
