G MASS Consulting are partnered with a leading global Hedge Fund to source a hands-on Business Analyst and Regulatory Change specialist. The firm requires a practitioner to take primary ownership of both the regulatory obligation and the end-to-end change programme.
Candidates with a purely advisory or consultative profile — without a demonstrable track record of personally driving delivery — will not be considered.
Regulatory Obligation Ownership
-
Maintain comprehensive knowledge of assigned regulation(s), including field-level detail, eligibility logic, and horizon scanning for upcoming rule changes
-
Act as single point of contact for regulatory enquiries, working closely with Compliance, counterparties, and trade repositories
-
Daily oversight of reporting metrics, exception management, and proactive BAU risk identification
-
Own end-to-end traceability from regulation through to technical implementation
Regulatory Reporting Change Management
-
Interpret and apply applicable obligations (CFTC Parts 43/45, OFR, EBS, CAT, or equivalent) to the firm's data model and reporting architecture
-
Develop functional and technical specifications; produce and manage requirements in JIRA
-
Own UAT end-to-end including test case generation, execution, and defect management
-
Design post-implementation control frameworks covering reconciliations, exception management, and BAU oversight
-
Maintain granular delivery plans with clear accountability and proactively flag risks before they escalate
Requirements
-
Hands-on experience across US regulatory reporting — CFTC Parts 43/45, OFR, EBS, CAT or comparable; breadth across multiple regimes a strong advantage
-
Deep knowledge of reporting flows, lifecycle event handling, and trade repository mechanics (e.g. DTCC DDR or equivalent SDR)
-
Strong grasp of data lineage, reconciliation design, and operational control frameworks
-
Ability to produce detailed requirements documentation and see them through to tested, implemented outcomes
-
Self-starter; able to work autonomously, manage cross-functional stakeholders, and deliver with minimal direction
-
Excellent written and verbal communication; capable of presenting to senior stakeholders without jargon or vagueness
