  • Maintain and update key static reference data including client, counterparty, venue, and internal decision maker identifiers
  • Coordination with Middle Office, Trade Floor, Legal and Compliance, Technology, key external vendor systems, and other teams as necessary
  • Prepare internal metrics and summaries to senior stakeholders on reporting efficiency
  • Conduct ad hoc analysis to research and identify anomalies and patterns within our reporting data
  • Contribute to the creation of new requirements within the global regulatory change book-of-work


Position Requirements:

  • 3+ years equivalent work experience with a leading investment manager or sell-side firm working in a regulatory reporting or middle office role
  • Familiarity of financial industry regulatory regimes (preferably MIFID II, or G20 EMIR / SFTR)
  • Strong understanding of trade operations, buy-side front-to-back trade lifecycle across a diverse set of financial products
  • Strong data analysis tools in Excel, and preferably exposure to Python, SQL, and/or business intelligence reporting tools
  • Experience using Bloomberg, especially Bloomberg's Regulatory Reporting solution (RHUB)
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office products (Excel, Word, Outlook)
  • Able to work independently and as part of a global team
  • Intuitive and analytical thinker with excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels
