Organization: Qliq
Location: Amsterdam – part-time, one day per week on-site

Qliq is a proprietary trading firm within the Qmulus Group – an entrepreneurial single-family office active in real estate, private equity, and trading. Qliq focuses on absolute return strategies in U.S. markets, operates as an independent entity, and is powered by a compact, ambitious team of professionals.

The organization is entering a new phase of growth and professionalization. The Supervisory Board plays an active role as a strategic sounding board and sparring partner to the CEO. To strengthen the board, we are seeking a new member with a solid background in trading-related risk management – particularly in the areas of market risk, risk control mechanisms, and strategic risk assessment.

About the role

As a member of the Supervisory Board, you will contribute to high-level discussions on strategy, performance, and risk oversight at Qliq. You bring subject-matter expertise in trading risk management and are able not only to identify risks but to place them in the proper context – aligned with the nature of an independent trading firm operating in an entrepreneurial and performance-driven environment.

You are analytical, constructively critical, and unafraid to ask the tough questions. You have experience with (or a strong understanding of) governance and are motivated to play an active role in a young and driven organization in transition.

Key responsibilities

• Advise on and oversee Qliq’s risk management policies, with a focus on market risk and risk-return considerations.
• Serve as a sparring partner to the CEO on risk-related strategic matters.
• Safeguard the balance between performance, risk, and long-term sustainability.
• Contribute to strategic oversight of trading performance and organizational development.
• Collaborate with fellow Supervisory Board members in a transparent, professional, and independent team.
• Report to shareholders and promote transparency and good governance.

What we are looking for

• Extensive experience in trading-related risk management, e.g., as Head of Risk, CRO, or in a senior risk role at a proprietary trading firm or comparable environment.
• Deep expertise in market risk, risk models, stress testing, and risk limits.
• Solid understanding of the dynamics and risk profiles of absolute return strategies and electronic markets.
• Experience in governance or board-level decision-making is a plus, but not required.
• Independent thinker with strong analytical skills, an open mindset, and affinity for entrepreneurship.
• Availability for an active supervisory role with weekly contact and meetings.
• Preferably based in or near Amsterdam.

What we offer

• A meaningful supervisory position at a fast-growing, independent trading firm.
• A professional team of board members and a decisive CEO.
• A culture focused on transparency, performance, and development.
• Market-competitive remuneration for board members.
• Meetings held at our centrally located Amsterdam office, easily accessible by public transport.
