Sell-side and banking backgrounds are preferred, given the client base. * Deep, hands-on SFTR expertise, including direct experience of scope validation, field-level mapping, back-reporting, and data quality remediation. * Front or middle office experience in securities finance - securities lending, repo, or collateral management - rather than regulatory interpretation alone. The ability to discuss a client's product set with authority and translate it into reporting obligations is the single most valuable attribute for this role. * Experience of remediation work driven by internal or external audit findings, including back-reporting and regulator notification, is a strong advantage. * Strong business analysis and project management discipline covering scoping, gap assessment, requirements documentation, and QA / UAT testing. * Familiarity with the source systems and order management platforms used across the client base - BRS Aladdin, Charles River (CRIMS), or Thinkfolio - is valuable. * Broader regulatory reporting exposure across EMIR, MiFID II / MiFIR, or CFTC / SEC regimes. * A track record of producing client-ready documentation - BRDs, test scripts, and analysis summaries - to a standard that withstands scrutiny. * Comfortable running engagements with a high degree of autonomy, managing more than one client at a time and adapting as review and sign-off cycles dictate. * Excellent stakeholder management and consulting presence, with the confidence to lead sessions with senior client stakeholders and represent subject matter expertise credibly. ## Description * Act as the SFTR subject matter expert on client engagements, providing hands-on business analysis support to institutions resolving SFTR reporting issues. * Scope and size issues identified through internal or external audit - establishing how many trades and which fields are affected, and the true extent of the exposure. * Lead back-reporting exercises, correcting and resubmitting historic misreported or unreported transactions. * Support clients in preparing for regulator notification and in responding to regulatory enquiries arising from reporting failures. * Engage clients directly on the securities finance products they trade, translating those products into clear reporting obligations. * Validate reporting scope and requirements against ESMA guidance, assessed specifically against each client's investable universe. * Analyse client source system datasets, including BRS Aladdin, to determine which attributes will service their SFTR reporting requirements. * Map client data artefacts to the platform's SFTR specification, identifying gaps, ambiguities, and fields requiring attention. * Lead working sessions with key client stakeholders to resolve specific data gaps and interpretive questions, providing expertise directly in the room. * Prioritise the fields and data elements requiring attention in conjunction with the client, and document the resulting analysis and recommendations. * Produce Business Requirements Documents and test scripts built around each client's business scenarios. * Provide documented subject matter expertise on specific concerns raised over the course of an engagement, and prepare clear, high-level summaries of engagement activity and outcomes for client distribution.
