Market Connectivity Analyst
About The Position
Old Mission is looking to add a Market Connectivity Analyst to join our Technology Operations team in Chicago. In this role, you will be responsible for owning the ongoing business administration required to support the various ways Old Mission connects to the global financial ecosystem. This is inclusive of market data, order entry ports, and third-party execution management systems. You’ll be the first point of contact for triaging and resolving market data requests from both internal and external vendor counterparties and will be responsible for building strong relationships with relevant data side contacts at each of these data vendors. Working closely with Finance, you'll track fees associated with all market connectivity, assisting with the generation and review of reports summarizing these costs. You'll manage the tracking and auditing market data subscriptions as the business requires, including handling the ongoing entitlement and reporting obligations associated with each of these subscriptions. Similarly, you'll track and audit logical connections to trading venues as the business requires, working with trading desks and technologists to audit usage and reduce waste. A key metric of success in this role will be not only completing the tasks as the business required, but owning the creation of sustainable, automated processes for market connectivity management that can scale as Old Mission grows.
