- Complete daily reconciliations and support the team’s operational controls
- Maintain security master data, including pricing, dividends, corporate actions, interest, MBS paydowns, futures and FX rates
- Keep operational records accurate, complete and well organized
- Contribute ideas and support for process improvement projects
What You Bring
- 3–5 years of experience in trade operations, securities settlement or investment operations
- Working knowledge of settlement processes for equities, fixed income and derivatives
- A sharp eye for detail and comfort working with high volumes of numbers where accuracy is critical
- Strong Excel skills; Bloomberg experience is an asset
- Canadian Securities Course (CSC) is an asset
- Clear, professional communication with internal teams and outside counterparties
- Strong organization and a proactive, problem-solving approach
What’s on Offer
- A stable, well-established firm with a collaborative team culture
- Matched RRSP contributions and extended health benefits from day one
- Three weeks of vacation to start
- Broad exposure across asset classes and room to grow within operations
