• Strong analytical and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to partner effectively with global teams to assess the application of regulatory requirements to new and existing business activities.
• Understanding of derivatives documentation, including the ability to interpret and analyze derivative contract terms through trade confirmations, industry definitions, and related legal documentation; experience in this area is advantageous.
• Proven track record of driving and implementing regulatory change across global organizations, demonstrating high levels of initiative, resilience, and execution excellence.
• Collaborative and innovative mindset, with strong relationship-building skills, a commitment to integrity, and the ability to foster productive partnerships across business, operations, compliance, and industry stakeholders.
• Intellectual curiosity and a commitment to continuous learning, including developing expertise in global reporting regimes and keeping pace with evolving regulatory requirements and reportable activities.

Salary range for this position: $200,000- $230,000/Yr.
