Following a realignment of the firm's operating model, you'll step into a clearly defined remit supporting the public-side funds, working within established information-barrier protocols alongside portfolio management, trading and the wider global operations team. It's an opportunity to make an immediate impact in a lean, high-trust environment where your expertise will be relied upon from day one.

Operate within information-barrier protocols for public-side funds, maintaining robust audit trails and supporting control reviews
Build strong working relationships with portfolio management, trading, trustees, administrators and the global operations team, positioning yourself as a trusted point of contact on loan operations
3 years'+ experience in loan settlement or loan closing at an asset manager, CLO manager, bank or fund administrator
Hands-on ClearPar experience; WSO, Everest, Loan IQ or S&P/Markit loan tools advantageous
Strong working knowledge of LSTA/LMA documentation and settlement conventions, ideally across both US and European markets
