Citi's Markets business is looking for a Senior Business Analyst to join a globally managed team at the centre of derivatives data integrity and collateral operations.

Your work will directly shape the accuracy and reliability of data that is relied upon by margin operations, risk and control teams, technology, and client onboarding functions across the firm.
Responsibilities
Analyse derivatives documentation and accurately apply contractual terms within MAC to ensure the integrity of data relied upon by downstream Citi systems and stakeholders.
Manage high volumes of daily communications from internal business functions — including margin operations, XVA, technology, and client onboarding — resolving data and documentation issues within MAC efficiently and to deadline.
Take senior ownership of project deliverables, coordinating workstreams across data, technology, and product initiatives while contributing directly to team strategy and workload planning.
Lead the preparation and presentation of analytical work to support both internal and external audit processes, ensuring findings are clearly communicated to all relevant stakeholders.
Assess and resolve margin breaches arising from operations teams by identifying root causes within MAC data and applying appropriate corrective action.
Evaluate collateral schedules — covering both regulatory initial margin and variation margin — and ensure that collateral composition within MAC accurately reflects the terms of the underlying security agreements.
Participate in MAC strategy, development, and maintenance discussions, contributing informed analysis to decisions that affect the platform and its user community.
Required Qualifications & Skills
Experience in a role involving derivatives documentation, collateral operations, or a closely related area of financial services.
Demonstrated ability to interpret, analyse, and apply information from collateral schedules within security agreements to real operational scenarios.
Proven capacity to manage multiple concurrent tasks and respond dynamically to shifting priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
