Senior Associate, Portfolio Operations

This is a vital role in ensuring MFS can calculate independent Net Asset Values of investment funds. A Portfolio Operations (PO) Senior Associate will operate and oversee reconciliation and NAV review technology to deliver a full reconciled gross Net Asset Value to client operations teams or clients, including cash, positions, dividend & interest reconciliations.

A PO Senior Associate will have a strong understanding of what drives the value of an investment fund, the types of products it trades and the nature of day-to-day operations between an investment fund and its counterparties, all alongside a keen interest in learning new technologies and skills. Reporting to the Associate Director, you will: 

• Ensure client transaction processing is complete, corporate actions have been booked correctly & security pricing is accurate.
• Review pricing of portfolios, confirming securities such as equities, options, futures, bonds & OTC derivatives are priced correctly. Gather security prices from vendors such as Bloomberg & ICE when necessary.
• Operate and oversee reconciliation technology to deliver Investment Manager positions and profit & loss reconciliations, including GAV reviews.
• Liaise with custodians, brokers and other counterparties on an ongoing basis for break resolutions and process improvements.
