Job Description

Corporate Derivatives Trading Desk Position

Morgan Stanley's Institutional Securities Group (ISG) is a remarkably broad and diversified business. We provide institutions with almost every kind of financial product and service across the world's major markets. Whether you're interested in planning complex deals; trading on the moment-to-moment movements of the capital markets; analyzing the financial needs of a company or a wealthy family, Morgan Stanley is the place to be.

The Corporate Derivatives Trading desk within the Institutional Equity Division is responsible for pricing, trading, and risk-managing both vanilla and complex derivative products for corporate clients of the firm. Products range from vanilla options to more complex exotic payoffs and margin lending. Trades typically consist of single stock underliers, but given the complexity of some of the risks, members of the desk must be able to understand a wide variety of instruments and financial markets.

Traders on the team are responsible for:

  • Pricing and structuring of margin loans and derivatives transactions for corporate and wealth clients
  • Collaborating with members of the Global Capital Markets and IED derivatives teams on idea generation and structuring of client requests
  • Conducting research on stocks / companies in order to evaluate risks and make trading decisions
  • Daily risk management and hedging of the trading books, including close interaction with other traders and brokers
  • Driving forward new technology and infrastructure projects with IT and desk strategists

The trading desk currently consists of a small team looking to hire a senior associate/VP level candidate to help with all the above responsibilities.

The ideal candidate will have experience on margin loans and derivatives engineering and trading with an ability to understand more complex payoffs, and will be proactive, a team player, and willing to learn and take on responsibility quickly.

We are committed to maintaining the first-class service and high standard of excellence that have defined Morgan Stanley for over 89 years. Our values - putting clients first, doing the right thing, leading with exceptional ideas, committing to diversity and inclusion, and giving back - aren't just beliefs, they guide the decisions we make every day to do what's best for our clients, communities and more than 80,000 employees in 1,200 offices across 42 countries. At Morgan Stanley, you'll find an opportunity to work alongside the best and the brightest, in an environment where you are supported and empowered. Our teams are relentless collaborators and creative thinkers, fueled by their diverse backgrounds and experiences. We are proud to support our employees and their families at every point along their work-life journey, offering some of the most attractive and comprehensive employee benefits and perks in the industry.

However, base pay if hired will be determined on an individualized basis and is only part of the total compensation package, which, depending on the position, may also include commission earnings, incentive compensation, discretionary bonuses, other short and long-term incentive packages, and other Morgan Stanley sponsored benefit programs.
