Role overview A specialist data and analytics role within the Data and Analytics Management department of a global financial institution, focused on safeguarding the integrity of position, transaction, and computed data across liquid, derivative, and alternative investment assets. You will sit on the Analytics Integrity team, partnering with Data Referential and Governance colleagues to ensure seamless data flow across major systems used by portfolio management, middle office, risk, quant, compliance, and finance stakeholders. The role blends hands-on operational data work with cross-team coordination and vendor governance.

Responsibilities - Ensure accurate integration of data from referential and external sources into downstream systems, maintaining high data quality and consistency. - Run first-level database controls, proposing and applying process changes that improve data accuracy and operational efficiency. - Develop a deep understanding of the transformations and computations that generate computed data across firm-wide systems. - Provide high-quality support to end-users and project teams, handling complex requests that go beyond standard operating procedures. - Collaborate with Data Referential, IT, and Data Governance teams to resolve transversal data issues and protect end-to-end consistency. - Identify data issues, assess their impact and risk, and propose mitigations to stakeholders. - Coordinate with major service providers and participate in governance meetings to track and resolve critical data topics. - Contribute subject matter expertise to IT and business projects, and formally document any deviations from standard operating models.

Requirements - At least five years of experience in finance, ideally in asset management, with significant exposure to operational roles such as data, IT, or front, middle, or back office functions. - Thorough understanding of operational processes and how major data consumers—portfolio management, middle office, risk, quant, compliance, and financial controllers—use the data. - Hands-on application experience with Aladdin or Adjuto. - Autonomous approach to investigating and resolving complex end-user requests beyond standard procedures. - Ability to understand data in-flows and out-flows, technical architecture, and the business transformations applied to data. - Excellent written and verbal communication in English, with the ability to liaise across multiple internal and external parties. - Analytical mindset, rigor in control checks, and a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating operational risk.

Nice to have - Experience in a global, cross-functional data governance environment. - Familiarity with vendor management and service-level governance with external data providers.
