This is a high-visibility position working closely with trading and financing desks, counterparties, exchanges, prime brokers, and custodians. You’ll oversee key post-trade controls, support new trading strategies and business initiatives, and drive process improvement and change management across existing and new trade flows, while managing and developing a high-performing team.
