Context

This is a key role in the team which involves coordination of post trade lifecycle management across Phoenix Group entities for derivative products. Dedicated product support for the various Front Office functions, primarily the ALM (Asset Liability Management) team on trade execution, confirmation, and post trade activities. Additionally, this role will be integral in supporting Portfolio Implementation and Manager Oversight on a day-to-day basis, providing key operational input and guidance.
A key focus of the role will be to ensure accurate and timely derivative data is stored through internal systems requiring coordination and direction of activities amongst internal functions and key outsourced service providers.
