About the Role
Partnering with a leading global hedge fund to enhance and optimize its European trade and transaction reporting framework. This hands-on role combines regulatory interpretation, BAU oversight, business analysis, data investigation, testing, and continuous improvement, acting as a principal point of expertise for an assigned reporting obligation.
Responsibilities
- Take end-to-end ownership of an assigned European trade or transaction reporting obligation (SFTR, EMIR, or MiFID II/MiFIR).
- Maintain a detailed understanding of relevant regulations and their implementation, including reportability logic, field-level requirements, data sourcing, enrichment rules, and vendor mappings.
- Act as the primary point of contact for questions regarding current implementation, BAU reporting, and future regulatory changes.
- Conduct horizon scanning and assess the impact of regulatory and industry developments on the firm’s reporting framework, processes, and controls.
- Maintain clear, auditable traceability from regulation to business requirements, data mappings, controls, and technical implementation.
- Oversee daily BAU reporting metrics, proactively identifying exceptions, breaks, control weaknesses, and emerging risks.
- Ensure aged exceptions remain within the firm’s risk appetite, escalating promptly when exposures or control failures fall outside agreed tolerances.
- Advise Regulatory Operations on complex questions and issues arising through BAU reporting.
- Coordinate complete, accurate, and timely responses to enquiries from regulators and other external parties, in partnership with Compliance.
- Respond to reporting-related questions from counterparties, reporting venues, repositories, service providers, and other stakeholders.
- Assess new products, instruments, and business activities to determine their regulatory reporting impact, coordinating analysis, implementation, and testing.
- Lead regulatory reporting change from impact assessment to implementation, including requirements gathering, Jira documentation, test-case creation, testing, UAT, and post-production validation.
- Analyze front-to-back data flows, field mappings, and enrichment processes to identify data-quality issues, reporting gaps, and improvement opportunities.
- Perform hands-on data investigation and root-cause analysis, partnering with Technology and Operations to define and implement resolutions.
- Validate data sourcing, transformation, and lifecycle-event logic against applicable regulatory and technical requirements.
- Identify and deliver improvements based on BAU metrics, Compliance input, assurance findings, and regulatory feedback.
- Engage with relevant trade repositories, Approved Reporting Mechanisms, vendors, and regulators as required.
- Contribute to the firm’s target-state regulatory reporting roadmap, focusing on control maturity, automation, and exception reduction.
Requirements
- Deep practical expertise in at least one of the following European regulatory reporting regimes: SFTR, EMIR (including EMIR Refit), or MiFID II/MiFIR transaction reporting.
- Previous experience acting as an obligation owner, regulatory reporting subject-matter expert, Lead Business Analyst, or Change Manager within a hedge fund, investment bank, trading firm, or comparable capital-markets environment.
- Detailed understanding of the relevant regime’s reportability rules, field-level requirements, data mappings, lifecycle events, reconciliations, and exception-management processes.
- Strong understanding of associated financial products, transaction lifecycles, and front-to-back data flows.
- Proven experience overseeing BAU regulatory reporting metrics, exceptions, and risks within defined operational and regulatory tolerances.
- Experience responding to regulatory, Compliance, assurance, counterparty, or reporting-provider enquiries.
- Strong business-analysis and change-delivery capabilities, including impact assessments, requirements documentation, Jira management, test-case creation, UAT, and post-production validation.
- Hands-on data-analysis experience, including SQL querying, exception investigation, root-cause analysis, and control testing.
- Familiarity with relevant regulatory reporting standards, identifiers, and formats (e.g., ISO 20022 XML, UTI, UPI, LEI, ISIN).
- Experience assessing the regulatory reporting impact of new products, instruments, or business activities.
- Demonstrable experience delivering sustainable process, data, and control improvements within a regulatory reporting environment.
- Excellent stakeholder-management and communication skills, with the confidence to engage senior stakeholders, counterparties, reporting providers, and regulators.
- A strong sense of ownership, accountability, and attention to detail.
- Ability to act as the firm’s principal specialist for an assigned reporting obligation.
- London-based and prepared to work five days per week in the office.
