  • Trade Control processes (confirmations, validations, lifecycle events, reconciliations)

  • Back Office & post-trade operations

  • Regulatory, accounting, and exchange-related workflows

  • Interaction with upstream/downstream systems (market data, settlements, accounting, reporting, data platforms)

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and facilitate discussions with business users
  • Gather, clarify, and drive functional requirements
  • Translate European processes for US teams
  • Support testing, validation, and business alignment
  • Identify functional gaps and coordinate resolution with internal teams and vendors
