Equity Derivative Middle Office

Top Investment Bank in the City is looking to hire for an experienced Equity Derivative Middle office candidate to join their ambitious team. This team acts as a primary point of contact on all matters relating to trade capture, risk and PnL.

The successful candidate should have a proven track record within a complex environment and have an excellent understanding of ‘Front to Back’ processes in general. Previous exposure to Equity Derivatives related products from within a Trade Support or Controls function would be desirable but we would also consider those from other asset classes with a demonstrable background and evidence of a strong Controls mindset. Solid knowledge of Operational Risk and all associated control processes that aim to mitigate this risk are essential as is compliance with all escalation procedures.

Responsibilities will include;

Providing management oversight and support for activities, which have regulatory risk and control implications for the EMEA Equity Derivatives Middle Office
Providing Management and other internal clients analysis and reporting for the activities which have regulatory risk and control implications – In particular, escalating risks appropriately
Providing expertise in driving an improvement in the controls environment through influencing other Middle Office functions and recommending infrastructure improvements.
Liaising with global colleagues to maintain a consistent approach and to leverage existing processes in other regions that can be applied in EMEA
Managing ad-hoc Control centred projects and performing detailed root cause analysis investigation where required
Risk and KPI monitoring for offshore teams

Candidates will need to have a background within Derivatives and have a strong interest in Risk.
Strong excel skills would be desirable.
