Prosmar Risk seeks 1-2 Analysts to join a growing shipping startup

We are a fast-growing tech-company within the shipping sector who needs 1-2 ambitious new colleagues to help provide business intelligence services to our extensive list of international clients.

Prosmar Risk AS is a specialized software/service provider for shipping clients all around the world. Our company offers market-leading financial risk management applications. Since 2013, our team has helped multiple shipping companies to gain competitive advantages using digital tools and training to make their strategic decisions based on company and market data.

If you have a strong interest in technology and have a university degree in business or finance, then you might be the one we are looking for. Being a part of our team in the intersection of technology, business, and shipping will give you the chance to develop your technological skills and capabilities while gaining insights and understanding in one of the largest growing businesses in the world. Joining a small, but highly competent team ensures that you will have a voice on high-level decisions from early on, and you will be in direct contact with executives from many international companies.

Being a business analyst in Prosmar Risk will expose you to the very inner financial workings of shipping companies. The companies we work with make decisions on a day-to-day basis that puts hundreds of millions of dollars on the line. For a shipping company there are two major risks: movement in the bunker prices and movement in the freight market. Our mission is to identify and communicate to our clients where the financial dangers in these exposures lie before adverse outcomes materialize.

As a business analyst, you will have the ability to challenge yourself on a multitude of different tasks from day one:

• Maintain and develop customer relationships.
• Be the bridge between our skilled development team and our clients, translating business inquiries into programmable solutions.
• Work efficiently with multiple clients at the same time and be able to maintain a high level of service under pressure.
• Using tools such as Power BI, Excel, SQL, and Python to analyze and visualize client data.
• Testing and documentation of existing software to help clients understand how to efficiently use our products and to ensure that all systems and programs are running correctly and effectively.

For Prosmar Risk, you will specialize in:

• Analyzing how clients use swaps, futures, and options to hedge and speculate on their physical exposure.
• Assisting C-level management in making data-driven decisions based on information available to manage their market risk.
• Testing the functionality of the system and assisting the programmers in developing a user-friendly interface for our clients.
• Implementing new features and guiding clients on how to use it.

In Prosmar Risk you will have the possibility to form your path toward what responsibilities you like: focusing on the development of our products as a product analyst or having meetings and follow-ups with the clients as a client analyst. The possibilities in Prosmar will be many, and you can have the freedom to decide what your dream job could be. Working for an international company with clients in Denmark, Singapore, Dubai, USA and Thailand will give you the opportunity to travel to multiple countries if you desire.

We are looking for someone who is:

 A commercial and business-oriented person who is continuously seeking new solutions.

Driven by accomplishing results, has high ambitions and is confident in being held accountable for your actions.

Structured and detail-oriented to keep track of current and future software developments.

Excellent at recognizing patterns, analyzing numbers and has the ability to utilize IT tools to assist our client’s decision-making.

Able to work independently and proactively, but also as part of a team.

Fluent in communicating in written and verbal English.

In addition, it is a bonus if you have:

• Familiarity and knowledge of basic programming and its syntax.
