OMS/PMS PM/BA – Buy-Side Derivatives / TOM / Vendor Selection

Contract: OMS/PMS PM/BA – Buy-Side Derivatives / TOM / Vendor Selection
I’m looking for an experienced Investment Systems BA/PM for a major platform OMS/PMS PM/BA – Buy-Side Derivatives / TOM / Vendor Selection replacement programme with a large UK institutional investor / asset owner.
This is a derivatives-heavy role, supporting the replacement of an existing investment management system and helping the client move through RFI/RFP, vendor selection and implementation planning.
The role will sit across Front Office, Operations, Risk, Performance and senior investment stakeholders, so the successful contractor needs to be credible with the business at product level, not just someone who has managed a systems project.
Key areas of focus will include:
* OMS / IMS / PMS replacement or implementation
* Derivatives workflows and product coverage
* Overlays, FX forwards, FX options, equity futures and total return swaps
* Collateral, margining, valuations, exposures and Greeks
* Front-to-back investment workflows
* Interfaces, data flows and downstream systems
* Vendor selection, RFI/RFP support and implementation planning
* Working with senior investment, risk and operational stakeholders
This is best suited to a senior Investment Systems BA, BA/PM or implementation consultant with strong buy-side experience and a genuine understanding of derivatives and front-to-back operating models.
Experience with platforms such as Bloomberg AIM, Enfusion, Limina, Aladdin, Charles River, SimCorp, ThinkFolio, Eze or similar would be highly relevant.
Contract: 6 months initial, with a likely longer programme beyond this
IR35: Outside IR35
Working pattern: Hybrid / London
Rate: c. £750–£800/day depending on experience
Please get in touch if you have delivered an investment platform change in a buy-side environment with heavy Derivatives exposure and understanding, and can operate across both business analysis and light-touch project management
