Strategy, Process Improvement & Technology

  • Collaborate with Technology and external vendors on system enhancements, integrations, and workflow optimization.
  • Lead crossfunctional initiatives to improve scalability as the firm grows its credit platform.
  • Develop and deliver executive-level reporting on settlement performance, aged items, and pipeline health.

Qualifications

Education:

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field required.
  • MBA, CFA, CPA, or equivalent professional credential is a plus.

Experience Required:

  • 4-6+ years of investment operations experience at a buy-side investment manager or comparable environment.
  • Expert-level knowledge of syndicated loan closings and settlement practices, including ClearPar workflows.
  • Advanced proficiency with WSO Admin; familiarity with Allvue/Black Mountain, Everest, Geneva, and IVP preferred.
  • Strong understanding of loan documentation, trade mechanics, and funding processes across leveraged loans, private credit, and CLO structures.
  • Proven ability to manage high-volume pipelines, tight deadlines, and complex counterparties.
  • Experience leading teams, overseeing third-party providers, and interacting with senior stakeholders.

Core Competencies

  • Exceptional communication skills-able to coordinate effectively across front office, internal teams, counterparties, and custodians.
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence, prioritize, and make decisions under pressure.
  • High attention to detail with a hands-on, execution-focused mindset.
  • Analytical and process-oriented, with a track record of driving operational improvements.
