ABOUT THE JOB
The role is to develop and implement methodologies, tools, and approaches to identify, quantify, and mitigate the impacts of climate-related physical risks, and nature risks, on the Group’s business operations and financial assets.
The goal is to enhance existing processes and frameworks and facilitate the embedding of physical climate risk, not to ‘carve-out’ activities related to physical climate risk. To meet this objective, the role requires close co-operation with teams within RISK, for example those working on scenario analysis and regulatory models, and outside of RISK, to support these teams with the required expertise whilst avoiding duplication of common elements.
Whilst the role is primarily Madrid based, the role covers all BNPP Group activities and functions and requires strong collaboration with the RISK ESG Team based in London and Paris.

· Financial risk quantification
- Support the modelling and quantification of physical climate risks and nature risks in collaboration with other RISK teams, particularly those working on scenario analysis and regulatory models. Topics include propagation of physical risks to company financials, capturing portfolio diversification effects and adaptation & insurance measures.
- Perform general research activities around the financial quantification of physical risk.
- Devise vulnerability models (damage functions) having regard for regional, sectoral and asset specificities, with a view to assess physical risk both at asset and counterparty-level.
- Devise metrics and indicators (whether score-based or financial) that are suited to the assessment of physical risk at asset, counterparty, or portfolio-level – with attention given to the use case in scope (e.g. risk management, origination, engagement, etc.).
· Quantitative development
- Contribute to the maintenance and development of the library of climate hazard and vulnerability models available within the BNPP ecosystem.
- Assist in ensuring the framework is designed in a way that facilitates its use or integration within other areas of the Bank (e.g. stress-testing, back-testing).
· Operational insertion & support
- Participate in client engagement technical discussions with a view to continually enhance the internal modelling capability (for example, reflecting adaptation measures and other operational or financial mitigants); share best practises with peers.
- Provide advice and support in relation to operational insertion activities; collaborate with internal stakeholders, including financing teams, risk management, and sustainability departments, to integrate climate risk considerations into the decision-making processes.
- Contribute to the assessment and reporting of physical climate risks, with a view to identify potential vulnerabilities within the Bank’s portfolios.
- Contribute to the implementation of risk mitigation strategies (adaptation measures, insurance solutions, portfolio diversification strategies) to minimize the financial impact of physical climate risks.
REQUIREMENTS
Studies
- A strong academic background, with at minimum a degree in physics, mathematics, quantitative finance, climate science, environmental science or similar.
- A background in climate/environmental science and an advanced degree (at minimum Masters) is an advantage

- Work to tight deadlines.
