Operations Manager

Credit Operations Manager — Leading Hedge Fund

One of the top multi-strategy platforms on the Street is building out its credit middle office — and looking for an operations professional who wants real ownership, not a cog-in-the-machine seat. You'll sit shoulder-to-shoulder with credit PMs and traders, run the full trade lifecycle across some of the most interesting products in the market, and have a direct hand in shaping how the desk scales.

• The full lifecycle of credit trades — affirmation, matching, settlement, exercise/expiry — across structured credit, CDX/CDS, CLO, CMBS, MBS, TBA and cash bonds
• Bond, repo and structured-credit settlements, partnering with prime and executing brokers to keep things clean and on time
• PnL break investigation alongside PnL Control — validating security and model setup, reconciling against clearing houses (ICE) and bilateral counter parties
• Daily relationships with executing brokers, prime brokers and fund admins
• Automation and process improvement — working with technology and vendors to take the manual work out and build for scale

• Real credit middle-office / operations experience at a bank, asset manager, fund admin or hedge fund
• Hands-on exposure to structured credit products (this is the differentiator)
• Strong markets knowledge and the organization to juggle a fast, high-volume desk
• Someone who spots the broken process and fixes it rather than working around it
