United Kingdom
Message

At Barclays Investment Bank PLC, I work as a Senior Middle Office Operations SME, supporting pre- and post-execution fixed income operations. I analysed data using Tableau and internal systems to identify root causes, reduce fails, and save the bank 100k+ per day in fails charges.

I led UAT projects including the T+1 Transition, Brexit Migration, Email Digitisation, Fails Reduction Overhaul, and system and platform transitions. I also conducted broker reviews and gap analysis that led to a 24% improvement score.

At Allianz Global Investors, I supported cross-product operations, including trade confirmation and settlement across FX, IRS, equities, repos, and fixed income. I also oversaw OTC derivatives compliance under EMIR, including trade repository reporting and CCP clearing operations via LCH SwapClear.

Earlier, I worked in middle office operations at Barclays Investment Bank PLC and in Trade Support/Settlements at The Bank of England. My experience includes trade lifecycle management, fails investigations, settlement, collateral management, and regulatory compliance.
