  • Help embed a culture of continuous improvement across investment operations.

Experience & Skills

Essential

  • Experience as a Business Analyst within investment management, fund operations, or a similar financial services environment.

  • Strong documentation skills with the ability to distil complex processes into clear, actionable outputs.
  • Confident working across technology and business teams to drive operational change.
  • Highly organised, structured, and detail oriented.
  • Experience delivering a Target Operating Model.

Desirable

  • Exposure to workflow or project management tools.
  • Experience supporting operational process redesign within regulated financial environments.
  • Understanding of data quality, operational oversight, or investment governance frameworks.
