The ideal candidate brings strong analytical judgment, works accurately in a high-volume environment, and is comfortable researching operational issues through resolution.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support daily middle office and accounting operations, including cash and position reconciliations, cash management activities, quality-control reporting, and client-specific operational processes.

  • Review moderately complex documents and transactions to confirm compliance with established policies, procedures, controls, and service-level agreements.
  • Verify that operational processing has been completed accurately and with appropriate risk controls.
  • Track fund data and trading activity while maintaining complete and accurate records.
  • Identify potential process failure points and document findings through clear error reports and operational updates.
  • Manage moderate to high transaction and document volumes while balancing competing deadlines.
  • Support conversion efforts from legacy workflows to standardized platforms and processes.
  • Communicate findings, risks, and unresolved issues clearly to internal stakeholders.
  • Contribute to process-improvement efforts, including opportunities involving automation or AI-enabled operational tools.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and relevant professional experience.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to research issues, identify root causes, and exercise sound judgment.
  • Demonstrated ability to multitask, prioritize competing deadlines, and deliver accurate work in a high-volume environment.
  • Strong attention to detail with a control-focused approach to reviewing transactions, records, and operational processes.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Curious, adaptable, and proactive approach to learning, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree.
  • Previous experience in financial services, operations, accounting support, or a related environment.
  • Experience with middle office operations, fund accounting, trade support, or transaction-based processing.
  • Familiarity with cash or position reconciliations, exception management, and operational controls.
  • Mutual fund experience.
  • Experience working for an asset servicer, custodian, fund administrator, asset manager, broker-dealer, or similar financial institution.
  • Exposure to process-improvement initiatives, workflow automation, or AI-enabled operational tools.

Position Details
