What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote or Italy-based roles in asset servicing, corporate actions, fund operations, or securities operations. I'm relocating to Padova and available immediately.

At Brown Brothers Harriman, I processed voluntary and mandatory-with-options corporate action events for global institutional clients including Fidelity, Vanguard, State Street and BlackRock. I communicated event terms, validated election instructions, and submitted them to sub-custodians ahead of market deadlines.

I also reconciled positions and entitlements, investigated breaks, and monitored settlements and balances in BIDS. I built Excel trackers and reconciliations to spot discrepancies. Alongside full-time work, I completed an MSc in Financial Analytics; outside finance, I produce music as “atraxy,” with productions for Zeamsone, Kamil and Skumaj.
