  • Serve as the primary escalation point for technical, operational, and client-facing questions across team projects
  • Guide the resolution of complex issues involving trading workflows, positions, P&L, exposure, corporate actions, allocations, commissions, and PMS-to-General Ledger reconciliation
  • Partner with project managers, client stakeholders, and cross-functional teams to manage delivery risks and maintain strong client relationships
  • Establish consistent team practices for implementation quality, documentation, knowledge sharing, and client communication
  • Streamline implementation processes to reduce cycle times while maintaining high-quality service and meeting client-specific requirements
  • Support and mentor team members in developing deeper expertise across portfolio management, trading, and accounting workflows
  • Design and oversee sophisticated workflow configurations for complex client operating models, including trading, order management, allocation, position management, and accounting requirements
  • Collaborate with Valuation & Risk on complex instruments, analytics, and implementation requirements
  • Create a performance-driven environment, setting clear objectives and providing ongoing feedback to help team members reach their potential
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement, contributing to overall team and firm performance growth


What You'll Need:
  • 7+ years of experience with Portfolio Management Systems or in middle office, operations, implementation, or consulting roles at an asset manager, bank, administrator, or fintech provider
  • Demonstrated experience leading client implementations, delivery workstreams, or teams in a client-facing environment
  • Strong understanding of trading workflows, the trade lifecycle, P&L, portfolio accounting, and downstream financial reporting
  • Experience managing and resolving complex project, technical, or client escalations
  • Ability to prioritize team capacity and delivery needs across multiple concurrent projects
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose issues across interconnected systems and workflows
  • Excellent communication skills, executive presence, and ability to build trust with both clients and internal stakeholders
  • Experience with complex investment strategies, multi-manager environments, and multi-asset-class portfolios is strongly preferred
  • Exposure to complex instruments, including swaps, options, and futures, as well as accruals and tax lot accounting, is a plus
  • Prior people leadership, mentorship, or team-lead experience is preferred


Why This Role:
  • Lead a high-impact team supporting sophisticated investment managers and complex PMS implementations
  • Balance people leadership and project oversight with hands-on ownership of a strategically important onboarding
  • Drive outcomes across front-, middle-, and back-office workflows
  • Build deep expertise in Clearwater's Enfusion PMS capabilities, investment operations, and portfolio accounting
