As a member of the Product Management group within Delta Capita's new Trade Reporting Product business line, the Product Owner is responsible for translating the product vision into squad deliverables to achieve the product strategy, aligned with maximising value to the client.

The business supports regulatory trade reporting across multiple jurisdictions, including all derivative asset classes and SFTs. The team works closely with internal stakeholders and business heads to assess enhancements and revisions of the product service offering, as well as with client stakeholders to identify, describe, plan, and deliver initiatives.

• Manage the product backlog in collaboration with the Product Manager, prioritising and delivering against the roadmap to meet client demands.
• Gather requirements for upcoming changes, including regulatory updates, and contribute to service descriptions.
• Identify potential risks to project objectives and escalate as needed.
• Review and create enhancement requests and defects, prioritising using Agile tools like JIRA.
• Maintain up-to-date documentation and ensure clear, timely communication.
• Represent the customer in decision-making, including participation in external and relevant industry groups.
• Facilitate horizon scanning across trade reporting requirements, regulators, and industry groups.
• Be a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in areas of product and regulatory reporting (EMIR, CFTC, ASIC, MAS, MiFIR), attending client meetings as needed.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience in a similar Product Owner role.
• Bachelor's degree preferred; Master's or equivalent experience advantageous.
• Knowledge of financial services operations, especially Trade Booking and Regulatory Trade Reporting, with experience in EMIR, ASIC, MAS, MiFIR, or MiFID II.
