What You'll Do:

We are seeking a Nashville based Investment Management Operations Transformation Analyst to join Investment Management Operations in Global Technology & Operations.

Investment Management Operations is currently leading a multi-year transformation initiative focused on modernizing and simplifying the firm's operating model through the implementation of SimCorp.

• Identify, document, track, and assist in the resolution of defects, business exceptions, and process gaps throughout the implementation lifecycle.
• Validate data conversions, system integrations, reporting outputs, and operational workflows between legacy platforms and SimCorp.
• Participate in project working groups, requirements workshops, testing forums, and defect triage meetings.
• Support change management and operational readiness activities, including training, procedure development, and knowledge transfer.
• Maintain project documentation, action logs, issue trackers, and implementation artifacts to support program governance.
• Analyze operational impacts of system and process changes and recommend opportunities to improve efficiency, scalability, control, and risk management.
• Partner with operational teams across pre- and post-trade compliance, trade confirmation, trade settlement, reconciliation, security reference data management, pricing, corporate actions, performance and attribution, and client reporting to support implementation activities and business transformation initiatives.

What We're Looking For:
