Operational Specialist

Role: Operations Specialist | Location: Orlando, FL | Duration: Full-time Compensation: Competitive base + bonus Why This Role This is a chance to sit at the center of how a top-tier global bank actually processes fixed income Corporate Actions, with full front-to-back ownership rather than a narrow, siloed function. You'll manage events from new issuance through bankruptcies, calls, and maturities, act as proxy lead for a global team, and work directly with DTC, Euroclear, and foreign depositories. The team is investing heavily in automation and STP, so this role comes with real influence over how processes evolve, not just how they run today. If you want depth in complex fixed income mechanics alongside genuine cross-team visibility, this is that role. Position Overview The Corporate Actions Specialist owns the full trade-to-settlement lifecycle for Corporate Action Events across multiple fixed income products, including fails management. Responsibilities span event creation in proprietary systems, daily reconciliation, ad-hoc bond conversions on 144A/REGS securities, and settling claims with external brokers on Repo and Stock Loan positions.
