Permanently employed by usOr associate through your own companyRemote, hybrid or onsiteWe can employ you in over 120 countries

The work

What you would actually be doing.

Run work is not a dead end here. You keep a live platform healthy, then remove the reasons it needed you: automation, monitoring, documentation and permanent fixes.

On a typical engagement

  • Own second and third line support on a live platform
  • Investigate and fix root causes, not just tickets
  • Automate the recurring manual work
  • Improve monitoring and runbooks
  • Support releases, upgrades and month end cycles

What you bring

  • Support or run experience on SimCorp, CRD, Aladdin, Calypso or Finastra
  • SQL and scripting skills
  • Investment operations understanding
  • Clear written communication with business users
  • Improvement mindset rather than firefighting only

Fit

You do not need every line.

If you have the platform depth and you are the kind of consultant clients ask for by name, talk to us. We would rather have the conversation now and line you up for the right engagement than wait for a perfect match on paper.

Not available until next quarter? Still talk to us. Platform programmes are planned months ahead.

How you join us

Permanent with the firm, or independent.

A permanent role with us

You join the firm as one of our consultants on a permanent employment contract and deliver our engagements with our clients. We can employ you in your own country, in over 120 countries, so joining us does not mean relocating.

Associate through your own company

Prefer to stay independent? We engage your company business to business on a day rate for a defined engagement, with clear scope and invoices paid to terms.

Through a local umbrella

Where local rules make an independent contract awkward, we engage you through a compliant umbrella or agency of record so you can start quickly.
