The Senior Lead, Capital Markets Strategy & Execution would report into our Head of Capital Markets and act as a "strategic lead" to optimize our enterprise funding platform, drive cross-functional execution, and help scale the organization as we grow.

You will turn ambiguous, high-priority objectives into structured, measurable outcomes. Responsibilities 1.

Counterparty Management: Help manage relationships across investment banks, institutional investors, and rating agencies. 3. Market Development & Secondary Liquidity Liquidity Project Management: Drive initiatives focused on tracking and improving secondary market liquidity across relevant ABS shelves. Develop frameworks to monitor market liquidity, investor feedback, and provide updates and recommended actions to the executive team. 4. Scale, Automation, & AI Innovation Process Automation: Identify and implement workflows to automate reporting, cash flow analysis (Intex), surveillance, and executive dashboards. AI Roadmap: Partner with internal technology teams to build and scale safe, AI-enabled Capital Markets workflows.

Technical Skills: Familiarity with Intex, cash flow models, collateral performance analysis, and strong overall financial modeling capabilities. Leadership & Drive: Proven ability to independently lead complex, ambiguous initiatives and drive cross-functional alignment in a fast-paced environment. Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Engineering, or a related quantitative field. The pay ranges for New York-based hires are commensurate with candidate experience.
