As a Junior Portfolio Operations Associate, you will learn the engine behind asset management and contribute to critical processes daily. You will gain hands-on experience in reconciliations, pricing, and data validation with guidance from experienced teammates.

What You’ll Own:

• Validate transactions to ensure trades, corporate actions, and cash activity are accurately captured in systems.
• Review daily security pricing across asset classes and source data from vendors like Bloomberg or ICE when needed.
• Run and analyze reconciliations between internal books and custodians/brokers, flagging breaks for investigation.
• Prepare NAV review inputs and help identify key drivers behind day-over-day changes.
• Support client onboarding by organizing and validating account and data setup details.
• Coordinate with external partners (custodians, brokers) to gather information and help resolve discrepancies.
• Monitor operational tools and data feeds and escalate issues quickly to keep processes on track.
• Respond to routine queries from internal and external stakeholders with clarity and professionalism.

What You Bring:

Essential:

• Strong attention to detail: Ability to catch inconsistencies early, crucial for accurate NAV calculations.
• Curiosity and willingness to learn: Motivated to understand financial products and operational process connections.
• Analytical thinking: Ability to break down issues, identify patterns, and support root-cause analysis.
• Clear communication skills: Ability to explain findings and ask questions effectively across teams.
• Comfort with data and tools: Ability to work confidently in Excel and adapt quickly to new systems.

Valued:

• Exposure to financial services through internships, coursework, or early work experience.
• Familiarity with investment products (equities, bonds, derivatives).
• Experience with data platforms like Bloomberg or similar market data tools.
• Interest in asset management operations and building a long-term career in the field.

If you are detail-oriented, curious, and eager to build a career in investment operations, we encourage you to apply. Your mindset and learning agility matter most, even if you don’t meet every requirement.
