Job Summary

Job Description

What is the opportunity?

• Investigate and vet the details of corporate action events, and work with implicated teams to determine the necessary reference data updates
• Notify stakeholder teams of corporate action events, and facilitate tasks across various implicated teams, for example KYC and Account Management
• Produce metrics and report on the overall status of corporate actions processing
• Perform UAT and PIV testing during CDR release cycles

What you need to succeed?

• Post-secondary education or equivalent experience
• 1 - 2 years of prior relevant experience preferably in a financial institution
• Experience with corporate action event types and processing
• Relationship Management - proactively building effective relationships with key stakeholders
• Investigation and research experience - able to translate real-world entities and relationships into a data model

We care about each other, reaching our potential, making a difference to our communities, and achieving success that is mutual.
