Job description

Working hours: U.S. business hours (ET), Mon–Fri

Key Responsibilities

Lead the financing platform’s daily execution, acting as the operational owner of mandates and working with the CEO / Managing Partner to ensure all deals are executed on time and within agreed terms.

Run financing operations end-to-end: log and verify client funding / draw requests against limits and covenants; prepare clear approval packs with your own recommendations; obtain sign-offs.

Act as a front-line execution contact: join meetings with listed-company C-suites, investment bankers, brokers and lawyers; explain process, timelines and controls confidently; follow up on action items.

Execute payments: prepare payment documentation and process wires via bank portals with dual approval; confirm receipt, update records and resolve any exceptions with banks and issuers.

Track, reconcile and report: maintain live utilisation trackers and key dates; perform daily bank-to-ledger reconciliations; deliver a clean month-end close; prepare concise weekly dashboards for management and investors.

Build and improve the operating model: design and refine SOPs, checklists, templates and data flows (from mandate signing to funding and reporting); drive light automation where useful.

Coordinate stakeholders: work directly with issuer finance teams, brokers, banks, transfer agents and external counsel to clear items quickly and keep deals moving.

Support origination: help assess new opportunities, run basic deal economics, and maintain the issuer / intermediary CRM so that outreach and follow-ups are disciplined.

Qualifications

3–7 years of experience in investment banking, equity capital markets, structured finance, principal investing, or securities / fund operations with real exposure to live transactions.

Comfortable being both client-facing and detail-oriented: able to speak to C-suite executives about timelines and process, and also dive into reconciliations and documentation when needed.

Strong analytical skills and financial numeracy; able to build and review simple models of deal economics, limits and utilisation.

Strong Excel / Google Sheets skills (lookups, pivots, validations) and bank-portal fluency, with disciplined documentation and control habits.

Clear written and spoken English and confidence dealing with senior external counterparties (C-suites, bankers, brokers, lawyers).

Reliability covering U.S. hours from Kuala Lumpur in a hybrid setup, and comfort working in a lean, founder-led environment.

Degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Mathematics, Engineering or a related field, with solid academic performance; professional qualifications (e.g. CFA, FRM, ACCA) are an advantage.

Exposure to public-company workflows (e.g. placements, rights issues, corporate actions, registrar / custodian or listed-derivatives operations) is an advantage.
