- Pricing and valuation review flow, focusing on easing communication through common data standards and understanding.


What you’ll bring:

- Proven hands-on experience of at least five years in an operations team with significant flow that includes automated trading.

- A very good understanding of futures and IRS, including associated operations workflows.

- Strong, clear, and concise verbal and written communication skills in English.

- Willing to relocate to Switzerland (Zurich / Zug area).


Preferred experience:

- Proven hands-on experience in CDS/CDX, FX forwards, and cash equities, especially in credit-related workflows (such as blended-coupon compressions for CDX). 

- Experience in collateral management (margin and cash).

- Experience with corporate actions in cash equities.

- Proficiency in German.
