📋 Description

• Own assigned trading contract matters end to end, ensuring timely and accurate execution, consistent follow‑through on commitments, and clear communication of executed agreements to relevant internal teams and systems. • Review, analyze, and redline trading‑related legal documentation (including master agreements, confirmations, amendments, and guarantees), providing substantive input and commentary to Legal and Credit. • Coordinate onboarding, negotiation, and execution workflows with traders, Legal, Credit, Finance, Tax, Compliance, Operations, Risk, and external counterparties to minimize iteration and accelerate resolution. • Rapidly assess, prioritize, and re‑prioritize work in response to urgent or “hot” trading needs while maintaining control over existing deliverables. • Identify legal, operational, and contractual risks early, escalating issues with clear, practical, and solutions‑oriented recommendations. • Serve as the primary subject matter expert for designated agreements and counterparties, maintaining institutional knowledge, continuity, and oversight. • Support the development, maintenance, and auditability of standard trading documentation and complete contract files in partnership with Legal, reflecting evolving legal, business, and market developments.

🎯 Requirements

• Strong sense of ownership and accountability, with a demonstrated record of meeting deadlines. • Proven ability to manage multiple competing priorities in a fast‑paced trading environment and pivot seamlessly as urgencies arise. • Comfort acting as the sole or primary knowledge holder on complex or long‑running matters. • Sound judgment with the confidence to challenge assumptions, drive prioritization, and balance legal risk with commercial needs. • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the credibility to engage front‑office professionals and control‑function partners. • Ability to collaborate effectively across decentralized teams and multiple locations. • Experience working in a fast‑paced, lean, and cross‑functional environment. • Hands‑on experience reviewing and redlining trading documentation (e.g. MSPAs, confirmations, framework agreements, NDAs, guarantees). • Comfort engaging directly with legal counsel and contributing business‑focused input to negotiations. • Familiarity with trading workflows, transaction lifecycles, and post‑trade processes.
