What I'm looking for

I seek a senior financial operations role leading settlements, static data and stock-lending teams, driving automation and SOP improvements in a collaborative, compliance-focused environment with growth and leadership opportunities.

I am a financial operations professional with over 10 years' experience specializing in equity settlement, stock lending and borrowing, static data and reconciliation across global operations. I focus on aligning operational processes with compliance and industry best practice.

I have delivered end-to-end settlement and reference-data solutions at large financial services firms, implemented process automation including macros and reporting improvements, and led remote training programs. I have been recognized with team and individual awards for accuracy and performance and served as a business-continuity project manager.

I am motivated by roles where I can lead improvements in trade settlement, static data and stock-lending operations, drive automation and SOP development, and collaborate with front-, middle- and back-office stakeholders to deliver zero-error outcomes.
