The role, directly supporting the firm’s European OTC derivatives business, has a remit split between BAU operations and project management / value-add responsibilities. Given that the firm outsource most back office, line operations responsibilities are typically oversight + analytical / review of those processes. At least half of the role is focused on project work - increasing opportunities for process automation & improvements, reducing errors, implementing new software specific to more efficient operational Alpha, and offering scale to the firm’s high volume European OTC business are a core focus. The hire can expect to learn SQL and Python to a strong standard in the role.
Candidates should have 2-5yrs IB trade support or Hedge Fund operations experience, from tier one firms (potential flexibility either side). There is a focus on candidates already possessing strong change / project experience / automation skills. There will also be a focus on strong academics.
The role will offer a guaranteed minimum year one comp of £100-150k (depending on level of experience), with a commitment to year on year comp growth - we believe that for an operations role at this level of experience, the comp package is arguably market leading in London. Our client will also offer a sign-on bonus to more than make up for any losses when resigning in Q4.
