(Tech stack: Senior Business Analyst, Investment Management, IBOR, Investment Operations, Investment Lifecycle, Investment Data, Asset Management, Financial Markets, Fixed Income, Trade Lifecycle, Front Office, Middle Office, SQL, Python, APIs, Data Integration, Investment Technology, Senior Business Analyst)
Our client is an exciting and rapidly growing investment technology company whose cloud-based platform is transforming the way some of the world's leading financial institutions manage their investment data and operations.

The successful Senior Business Analyst will combine excellent communication and client-facing skills with deep Investment Management and Investment Operations knowledge.
