Position Summary

We are on an exciting journey to improve the quality, consistency, and accessibility of our data to enable timely and informed decision‑making across Securities & Markets. To support this effort, we are seeking a senior Securities & Markets professional with strong domain expertise and a deep understanding of front‑to‑back trading and post‑trade processes.

The ideal candidate brings hands‑on experience across Securities & Markets products and operating models, with a solid understanding of how trades are executed, captured, processed, risk‑managed, and reported. This role is well‑suited for an experienced Securities & Markets professional who understands the business end‑to‑end and is motivated to improve the quality and usability of the data that supports those activities.

This is not a technical or analytics role. The Vice President will act as a business subject matter expert and data steward, partnering closely with front office, operations, risk, and control teams to improve the clarity, controls, and reliability of Securities & Markets data.

This role is expected to act as a team lead for a group of 3–7 individuals, providing direction, prioritization, and day‑to‑day guidance, without full people‑management accountability.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as a business steward for critical data elements across the Securities & Markets domain (e.g., instruments, trades, positions, counterparties, pricing, valuations, exposures, lifecycle events)

• Define and maintain clear business definitions, usage standards, and ownership for Securities & Markets data

• Ensure data accurately reflects the business intent and operating reality of Securities & Markets products and processes

• Identify where process gaps, manual workarounds, or inconsistent practices lead to data quality or control issues

• Partner with front office, operations, risk, and control teams to improve upstream processes that generate or modify Securities & Markets data

• Help prioritize and resolve data issues that impact reporting, client experience, risk management, financial control, or regulatory obligations

• Translate business requirements and pain points into clear, actionable guidance for downstream consumers of Securities & Markets data

• Participate in data governance forums and working groups related to Securities & Markets

• Support data quality monitoring, root‑cause analysis, and issue remediation efforts

• Improve transparency and confidence in how Securities & Markets data is sourced, defined, and used across the organization

• Act as a team lead, coordinating work, setting priorities, and mentoring junior team members

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in Securities & Markets, such as trading, sales, middle office, operations, product control, risk management, or markets‑related control functions

• Strong working knowledge of the end‑to‑end Securities & Markets lifecycle, including trade capture, lifecycle events, valuations, settlement, and reporting

• Ability to explain complex markets concepts clearly to both business and non‑business audiences

• Strong collaboration, influence, and problem‑solving skills

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management capabilities

• Detail‑oriented with a strong sense of ownership and accountability

Preferred Skills

• Exposure to data quality, control environments, or process improvement efforts (formal or informal)

• Comfort working across functions and driving change without direct authority

• Curiosi
