- Gather, analyse and document business, functional and technical requirements across Aladdin modules, using AI to accelerate analysis while maintaining appropriate human review.
- Support data migration, system integration, testing and deployment activities across complex Aladdin environments, improving consistency and delivery outcomes through AI-enabled automation where appropriate.
- Act as a trusted advisor to business stakeholders, technology teams, BlackRock and project leadership, helping clients maximise the value of their Aladdin investment while supporting the responsible adoption of AI-enabled capabilities.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience delivering BlackRock Aladdin implementation, enhancement, migration or transformation programmes.
- Strong understanding of Aladdin capabilities across portfolio management, trading, investment operations, risk management, compliance and investment accounting.
- Experience working with business and technology stakeholders across large-scale transformation programmes within asset management or wealth management.
- Strong consulting, stakeholder management and communication skills with the ability to translate business requirements into Aladdin-enabled solutions.
- A mindset of continuous learning and curiosity for adopting AI-enabled ways of working to improve productivity, delivery quality and client outcomes while applying responsible AI principles.
Bonus Points For
- Experience across Aladdin Enterprise, Aladdin Wealth, Aladdin Accounting or Aladdin Data Cloud.
- Knowledge of OMS, IBOR/ABOR, portfolio management, investment operations, performance measurement or risk analytics.
- Experience integrating Aladdin with platforms such as Charles River, SimCorp, Avaloq, Temenos, FNZ or enterprise data ecosystems.
