I've worked on both sides of risk management. As Director of Model Risk at Deutsche Bank, I headed a twenty-person global team of model validators covering rates, FX, equities, and commodities, working closely with regulators during supervisory reviews in London, New York, and Singapore. I later moved into valuations and market risk, doing independent price verification on complex derivatives portfolios alongside front office, financial control, and internal audit. Before that, as a Managing Director running a derivatives trading desk at UBS, I sat on the trading side that risk teams oversee, so I understand both how risk decisions get made and how they land with the desk. I coach candidates targeting market risk, credit risk, and model risk roles, as well as model validation and valuations control positions. I focus on the technical questions these interviews actually test, including risk sensitivities, VaR and stress testing concepts, and how models are validated and challenged, along with how to present a risk background clearly and confidently in interviews You may notice I don't have reviews here yet. I joined Leland last year but only started actively coaching on this platform this month, since most of my time until now has gone into consulting work and interview coaching elsewhere, where I've built a track record of 25+ five-star reviews and a top 5% job offer rate with past clients.
