Job Description

Role Purpose

We’re growing our Portfolio Operations team as we continue to expand the range and complexity of funds we support. Accurate, timely NAVs are at the core of what we deliver to clients—and this role helps make that happen every day. As a Junior Portfolio Operations Associate, you’ll learn how the engine behind asset management really works while contributing to critical processes from day one. You’ll build hands-on experience across reconciliations, pricing, and data validation with guidance from experienced teammates.

What You’ll Own

  • Validate transactions to ensure trades, corporate actions, and cash activity are accurately captured in systems
  • Review daily security pricing across asset classes and source data from vendors like Bloomberg or ICE when needed
  • Run and analyze reconciliations between internal books and custodians/brokers, flagging breaks for investigation
  • Prepare NAV review inputs and help identify key drivers behind day-over-day changes
  • Support client onboarding by organizing and validating account and data setup details
  • Coordinate with external partners (custodians, brokers) to gather information and help resolve discrepancies
  • Monitor operational tools and data feeds and escalate issues quickly to keep processes on track
  • Respond to routine queries from internal and external stakeholders with clarity and professionalism
