Job description

Company
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago's Financial Markets Group is focused on advancing financial policy and robust market practices to promote the stability of the U.S. financial system. We analyze and advise on issues that affect financial markets and impact financial stability across a broad range of topic areas. We are part of the Research, Policy, and Public Engagement function.
As part of a multidisciplinary and collaborative team of professionals, the Senior Financial Markets Analyst will advance the team's efforts to expand its analytical capabilities for research that requires use of complex data sets. You will use database knowledge to compile statistical data, create data exploration tools, conduct initial data exploration on your own and work with senior staff members on their research. This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who is highly motivated to both learn about financial markets and market infrastructures and to contribute to high quality, impactful work directly connected to the responsibilities of the Federal Reserve.
Key Responsibilities
  • Directly contribute to research and communicate findings to the public through published reports and presentations.
  • Support development of internal policy analysis to support Bank objectives related to monetary policy and financial stability.
  • Support team deliverables to advise Reserve Bank President, other senior Bank leaders, and other policymakers on matters related to the team's areas of expertise through written analysis and presentations.
  • Develop and maintain overview materials to educate internal and external stakeholders on key issues affecting financial markets and market infrastructures.
  • Contribute to a highly collegial and collaborative work environment.

Your Background
  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • 3-7 years of experience as an industry participant, regulator, or academic scholar.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong ability to balance multiple projects.
  • Commitment to public service.
  • Strong ability to work with and analyze complex data sets using R and Python.
  • Depending on level of experience, candidates may be considered for a Financial Markets Analyst role.

Additional Requirements
  • Travel approximately up to 10%
  • This position requires access to confidential supervisory information and/or FOMC information, which is limited to "Protected Individuals" as defined in the U.S. federal immigration law. Protected Individuals include, but are not limited to, U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, and U.S. permanent residents who either are not yet eligible to apply for naturalization or who have applied for naturalization within the requisite timeframe. Candidates who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents may be eligible for the information access required for this position and sponsorship for a work visa, and subsequently for permanent residence, if they sign a declaration of intent to become a U.S. citizen and meet other eligibility requirements. In addition, all candidates must undergo applicable background checks and comply with all applicable information handling rules, and all non-U.S. citizens must sign a declaration of intent to become a U.S. citizen and pursue a path to citizenship.
  • As a condition of employment, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago employees must comply with the Bank's ethics rules, which generally prohibit employees, their spouses/domestic partners, and minor children from owning securities, such as stock, of banks or savings associations or their affiliates, such as bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies. If you or your spouse/domestic partner or minor child own such securities, and would not be willing or able to divest them if you accepted an offer of Bank employment, you should raise this issue with the recruiter for this posting, who can provide you contact information for our ethics official if necessary.

What we Offer
  • Comprehensive benefits package includes medical, dental, vision, prescription drug coverage, 401k savings plan, retirement plan, paid time off, transit benefit, onsite gym and subsidized cafeteria
  • A learning environment with opportunities to gain new skills and grow your career
  • Unique opportunity to contribute to monetary policy and work on issues of national and regional economic importance
