About the role
Wellington Management offers comprehensive investment management capabilities that span nearly all segments of the global capital markets. Our investment solutions, tailored to the unique return and risk objectives of institutional clients in more than 60 countries, draw on a robust body of proprietary research and a collaborative culture that encourages independent thought and healthy debate. As a private partnership, we believe our ownership structure fosters a long-term view that aligns our perspectives with those of our clients. Position The Derivatives Operations team supports a broad range of post-execution activities, including collateral and margin processing, lifecycle event management, confirmations, and trade messaging for OTC instruments (rates, credit, TRS, options), futures, listed options, cleared OTC, MSFTA, and repo. While management and most of the team are based in Boston, the London group provides critical daily processing, local market coverage, and on-the-ground escalation support. The Derivatives Operations Analyst will be responsible for reconciling and instructing daily margin requirements, processing accounting entries, and performing post-valuation control reconciliations for cleared products. The Analyst will work closely with brokers, client relationship teams, trading, and technology partners to ensure timely processing of lifecycle events, respond to internal and external inquiries, and resolve complex issues. Given the complexity and manual nature of certain processes, the Analyst is expected to identify and drive efficiency improvements through workflow, reporting, and reconciliation enhancements. While the role is highly collaborative, many responsibilities are self-directed and require the ability to work accurately under tight deadlines.
