About the Role

As a member of the Operations team, you'll own operational functions across Frec's broker-dealer and registered investment advisor that make Frec's mission possible. We're customer-centric, efficiency-seeking, and team-focused. Join us at a pivotal time to help shape our systems, our structures, and Frec's future.

Responsibilities

  • Own, improve, and scale the core operational workflows that power Frec's broker-dealer and RIA.
  • Automate, streamline, and eliminate manual work in all workflows.
  • Own daily reconciliation of customer assets against our custodian (Apex), investigate and resolve breaks, and build automated solutions.
  • Monitor algorithmic trading systems in real time, resolve rejections and escalations, and drive changes that improve execution quality and risk management.
  • Oversee ACAT, ACH, and wire transfers end-to-end, resolving returns, rejections, and escalations, and redesign processes to reduce rejection rates and processing times.
  • Issue and resolve margin calls, monitor margin risk across Reg T and portfolio margin accounts, and help improve margin monitoring.
  • Resolve cost-basis and wash-sale escalations, and implement process improvements.
  • Monitor risk and run analysis across our direct index portfolios, and stand up new monitoring and exception-reporting processes.
  • Resolve corporate action breaks and escalations, and partner with the team to implement permanent fixes.
  • Learn our data pipeline and technology stack, and use that knowledge to improve operational flows.
  • Serve as a subject-matter expert on new product developments, marketing initiatives, and engineering projects.
  • Contribute to the compliance program, including account-opening escalations, marketing reviews, and cybersecurity initiatives.
  • Assist with month-end closing and financial reporting for the broker-dealer and the RIA.
