• Support SEI's transition framework including knowledge transfer, training, certifications, shadowing, and ramp‑up activities.

• Maintain operational governance artifacts including Risk Registers, SOPs, and control documentation.
• Support risk‑based reviews, sample testing, and oversight of high‑risk transaction types.
• Participate in FMEA exercises, monthly health checks, and quarterly knowledge assessments.
• Monitor and report on SLA/KPI performance, issues, and risk events.

• Identify operational inefficiencies and support process redesign, value‑stream mapping, and elimination of non‑value‑added steps.
• Partner with automation and technology teams to implement BOT‑enabled automation, workflow improvements, and macro‑based utilities.
• Contribute to measurable reductions in manual effort and improvements in accuracy, turnaround time, and risk reduction.

• Provide regular reporting on operational performance, SLA dashboards, incidents, and trend analysis.
• Contribute to client meetings, deep‑dive sessions, and scope definition discussions.
• Support development and refinement of Statements of Work (SOWs).
• Serve as a knowledgeable and professional point of contact for client operations leaders.

• 5+ years of experience in trust operations, wealth management operations, fiduciary administration, or related banking operations.
