• Develop and maintain automated controls, exception reporting, and monitoring dashboards to support continuous validation.
• Partner closely with the Position Management Product Owner, Technology, and Accounting teams to resolve upstream data issues impacting reconciliation outcomes.
• Prepare evidence‑based certification and sign‑off materials for senior stakeholders, auditors, and migration governance forums.
• Monitor intraday position breaks and EOD reconciliation exceptions, escalating material issues and driving timely resolution within defined SLAs.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in position management, investment data reconciliation, or operational controls within a global asset management, asset servicing, or prime brokerage environment.
• Strong analytical skills with hands‑on experience designing and executing multi‑asset position and P&L reconciliations.
• Familiarity with position parity testing, UAT methodologies, and migration certification for investment book‑of‑record platforms.
• Solid understanding of position lifecycle inputs, including trade economics, settlements, corporate actions, FX revaluations, and cost basis methodologies.
