Regulatory Reporting Business Analyst/Project Manager (Hedge Fund)

Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

We are seeking an experienced Regulatory Reporting Business Analyst/Project Manager (Hedge Fund) with deep expertise in US financial regulations to join a high-performing team within a leading hedge fund in New York City. This is an initial six-month contract with a strong possibility of extension. Ideally, we are keen to connect with a Regulatory Reporting Business Analyst/Regulatory Project Manager expert, not a Product Manager.

The ideal candidate will have strong knowledge of US regulatory requirements, particularly either FINRA, SEC, CFTC, and/or other relevant regulatory frameworks. You will be responsible for working across regulatory projects, implementing new regulatory processes, and ensuring adherence to compliance standards. This role requires someone who can operate independently in a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment.

Responsibilities:

• Serve as a subject matter expert (SME) on US financial regulations, with a focus on FINRA, SEC, CFTC, and related frameworks, advising on compliance and reporting obligations.
• Lead end-to-end regulatory change initiatives, from defining business requirements (BRDs) and conducting data analysis to implementing process improvements and transitioning projects to business-as-usual (BAU).
• Collaborate with compliance, legal, operations, and technology teams to ensure seamless regulatory adherence across the organization.
• Analyze complex datasets, identify patterns, and proactively resolve issues with actionable solutions to enhance reporting accuracy and operational efficiency.
• Interpret regulatory changes, assess their impact on business operations, and drive strategic responses to maintain compliance.
• Support regulatory audits, examinations, and inquiries, ensuring preparedness and alignment with US market standards.
• Take full ownership of your portfolio of work, leading initial stakeholder conversations, managing project delivery, and influencing senior leadership with clear, concise communication.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Business, Economics, or a related field.
• 10+ years of business analysis experience within hedge funds, investment banks, or consulting firms, with a strong focus on US regulatory compliance.
• In-depth knowledge of FINRA, SEC, CFTC, and regulations governing financial products (e.g., commodities), with hands-on experience in regulatory change projects.
• Strong analytical skills, including proficiency in data manipulation, pattern recognition, and process optimization, with experience handling large datasets.
• Proven ability to author detailed business requirements documents (BRDs) and translate complex regulatory needs into actionable solutions for technology teams.
• Strong experience in regulatory change projects, including gathering requirements, process improvement, and implementation.
• Strong project management skills through the full lifecycle—scoping, analysis, implementation, and BAU handover.
• Strong communication skills and ability to influence senior stakeholders.

Benefits:

$1000 per day, Corp to Corp.
