SalaryCassonX are delighted to be recruiting for this city based bank that prides itself on creating an excellent working environment, with a work / life balance encouraged and the chance to be a person and not a number of the payroll. They have throughout the last few years made a lot of investment in upgrading their systems and processes, and now looking to hire due to an impending retirement. This company only hires those who are happy in person, and always committed to doing a good job! The type of individuals who are very successful in their business are those coming from a Tier 1 or 2 Bank or Broker background, well trained in controls and risk mitigation, and who would like to work for a smaller company and be recognised for being successful and good at what they do.
To be considered for this role, CassonX are looking to identify someone who has experience of leading a Fixed Income Middle Office team, with exposure to Cash Bonds, but ideally with additional knowledge of Interest Rate Swaps and/or REPO products. Should you have experience of primary market / new issues, then this is very beneficial. You must be willing to be hands on and to perform the typical day to day responsibilities of a Middle Office function, as well as being strategic and working on projects, mitigating risk, improving controls and providing leadership to the team. Strong familiarity of working with Traders, Product Control and Settlements teams is required, and any knowledge of Bloomberg TOMS, MarketAxess or MarkitWire is advantageous, so is someone who offers a short notice period.
The small yet highly skilled team sits part of a wider Middle Office function, and performs everything from trade re-bookings, confirmations, affirmations, allocations, FOBO recs, Static Data maintenance and investigating and resolving trade queries. This is a hands on role as much as it is leadership, with the team sitting with the Front Office accordingly.
A detailed job description will be shared with those who submit a relevant CV.
CassonX Limited are committed to providing fair employment opportunities to all applicants. We encourage anyone to apply, regardless of their background, and promote a fair and inclusive recruitment process based on merit. If you require any assistance throughout the interview process to improve your experience, kindly let us know.
