• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to reconciliations and break investigation
• Clear written communication, particularly for handovers and escalations
• Ability to work independently and prioritize effectively, especially when the London team is offline

Responsibilities:

• Checking trade bookings for accuracy and completeness and chasing recaps from counterparties.
• Monitoring trade matching status and working closely with our fund administrator to track downstream affirmation and confirmation
• Pushing through trades across equities, bonds and futures, ensuring they are correctly booked and settled
• Performing daily cash and position reconciliations and investigating breaks
• Providing out-of-hours coverage for the London team, monitoring the shared Operations inbox and resolving or escalating important queries
