Job Description

Be Part Of A High-Performing Capital Markets Delivery Team:

This opportunity sits within a fast-paced front office technology and business delivery environment supporting sell-side trading operations. The team partners closely with trading desks, business stakeholders, technology, and operations to deliver complex, high-visibility initiatives aligned with strategic objectives. Operating within an Agile framework, the organization values disciplined execution, strong stakeholder engagement, and deep understanding of trading workflows. This role plays a critical part in ensuring business-driven front office technology initiatives are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned to functional and organizational goals.

What’s In Store For You:

  • Leadership responsibility for front office, business-focused technology initiatives.
  • Direct collaboration with traders, product owners, business analysts, and IT teams.
  • Exposure to full lifecycle delivery across derivatives trading platforms.
  • Opportunity to influence cross-functional teams in a high-impact, high-visibility environment.
  • A role that blends strategic oversight with hands-on project governance.

How You Will Make an Impact:

  • Lead end-to-end delivery of business-focused front office projects within a sell-side derivatives environment.
  • Define project scope, objectives, timelines, and deliverables in collaboration with cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Translate business and functional requirements into actionable execution plans aligned with front office trading workflows.
  • Manage project schedules, budgets, resources, risks, and dependencies.
  • Operate within an Agile framework, leveraging JIRA for tracking, reporting, and governance.
  • Ensure alignment across trading, IT, operations, and other business units throughout the full SDLC.
  • Communicate project status, risks, and mitigation strategies to stakeholders and executive leadership.
  • Manage stakeholder expectations in a fast-paced, front office environment.
  • Oversee QA, UAT, testing coordination, release planning, training, and change management activities to ensure smooth rollout.
  • Ensure delivered solutions meet functional requirements and support front-to-back derivatives trade lifecycle processes.

Are you a proven front office delivery leader with deep derivatives domain expertise?

  • 10+ years of experience managing business-side or functional technology projects, preferably within capital markets.
  • Direct experience working in a sell-side front office environment.
  • Strong understanding of derivatives trading flows and lifecycle (front-to-back processing).
  • Experience operating in Agile environments with strong proficiency in JIRA for tracking and reporting.
  • Solid understanding of the full SDLC, including requirements gathering, development coordination, testing, release, and production support.
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams and manage senior stakeholder relationships.
  • Strong knowledge of business processes, workflows, and functional system requirements within trading environments.
  • Experience managing scope, timelines, budgets, and resource allocation.
  • Proficiency with project management tools such as Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, Jira, or similar platforms.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
  • PMP or equivalent project management certification preferred.
  • Background as a Business Analyst or Product Owner in a trading technology environment is a strong plus.
