G MASS are partnering with a major international bank to hire a Treasury Settlements Analyst into its EMEA Operations team, covering foreign exchange and money market flows for branches across the region.
Sitting within a busy treasury operations function, you will help make sure large, high value trades are matched, confirmed and paid on time, with market cut offs and regulatory obligations driving the pace of the day. The role offers broad exposure across the settlements lifecycle and close contact with clients, trading desks, custodians and audit, making it a strong fit for someone who is methodical, calm under pressure and keen to develop across a range of responsibilities.
Responsibilities

- Chase down and clear cash breaks and trade mismatches, working directly with clients, counterparties and custodians to get them fixed quickly
- Act as a point of contact for queries from internal teams and clients, keeping service levels consistently high
- Flag control weaknesses or operational risks early and suggest practical ways to tighten them up
- Deliver regular reporting and periodic checks accurately and to deadline
- Build knowledge of every function in the team so you can step in where needed, including a share of bank holiday cover
- Get involved in change projects and efficiency improvements, and work closely with neighbouring operations teams
Requirements
- Operations experience gained within an investment bank, ideally in a settlements or confirmations seat
- A good grounding in reconciliations
- Confident Excel user, comfortable with the wider Office suite, and quick to use technology to solve day to day problems
- Communicates clearly and professionally, both on the phone and in writing
- Well organised, able to juggle competing deadlines, and equally effective working alone or as part of a team
