About The Position

Corporate Treasury manages the firm’s financial resources and minimizes interest expense through liability planning, asset liability management, and liquidity portfolio yield enhancement. The division is ideal for individuals with strong analytical skills who want to work in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment that requires collaboration across many functions at the firm. Within Corporate Treasury, the Funding and Execution Trading Desk focuses on efficient management of liabilities supporting the firm’s assets, including issuance of secured and unsecured liabilities and execution of interest rate, currency and other hedging strategies. This desk also manages the firm’s excess liquidity portfolio, ensuring efficient alignment of cash and collateral balances and implementing yield enhancement strategies in the portfolio. The Treasury trading product suite includes structured repos, collateral upgrades, swaps, loans, bond borrows and notes, as well as other more complex products, designed to optimize firm funding across a range of constraints and objectives. The CT Middle Office team partners with trading, structuring and control functions across the firm to coordinate front-to-back lifecycle management for the diverse mix of transactions executed by the Funding and Execution Trading Desk. Key responsibilities of the team include liaising with clients to verify trades and coordinate settlements, helping in managing front to back lifecycle management of both unsecured and secured funding, ensuring accurate position capture of trading risk, and partnering with Engineering to uplift technology infrastructure and support new product development. CT Middle Office is looking for collaborative, analytical, highly motivated professionals to join our team, responsible for covering a wide range of Treasury product suite and risk functions.
