An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a Regulatory Transaction Reporting Officer to join a highly respected asset management organisation in London. This permanent position offers you the chance to become an integral part of a close-knit team responsible for ensuring regulatory compliance across multiple global regimes, including MIFID II, EMIR, FINFRAG, MAS, and SFTR. You will be joining a company with a rich heritage and a strong presence in the financial sector, renowned for its commitment to investment excellence and client service. The role provides exposure to complex regulatory environments and the opportunity to collaborate with both internal and external stakeholders. With a competitive salary of £70,000 and the chance to work alongside knowledgeable professionals, this is an ideal next step for someone looking to further their career in regulatory reporting within asset management.

What you'll do:

• Develop a comprehensive understanding of all relevant Regulatory Transaction Reporting regimes and requirements to ensure full compliance at all times.
• Deliver precise and timely transaction reports to Approved Reporting Mechanisms (ARMs), Trade Repositories (TRs), and Approved Publication Arrangements (APAs) using Straight Through Processing (STP), exception management processes, and delegation protocols.
• Monitor the completeness and accuracy of all reporting obligations by conducting regular EMIR Trade Repository reconciliations as well as FCA reconciliations.
• Utilise tools such as Kaizen, Novatus, and internal Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to proactively identify issues and monitor the quality and timeliness of reporting outputs.
• Serve as the central point of contact for all transaction reporting queries from both internal teams and external stakeholders, providing clear guidance and support.
• Build effective working relationships with Delegated Counterparties to facilitate efficient issue resolution and maintain high standards of service delivery.
• Manage onboarding tasks for new funds as well as Investment Data Managers (IDMs) and Enterprise Data Managers (EDMs), ensuring smooth integration into existing processes.
• Actively contribute to the ongoing development of the Control Framework by participating in process reviews and suggesting improvements where appropriate.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives by presenting ideas for process enhancements to the wider team.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of evolving regulations affecting transaction reporting within asset management.

What you bring:

To excel as a Regulatory Transaction Reporting Officer, you will bring substantial hands-on experience from roles focused on regulatory reporting within asset management or related financial services sectors. Your expertise in interpreting EMIR or MIFID II regulations will underpin your ability to ensure compliance across multiple jurisdictions. You are comfortable navigating delegated oversight structures while maintaining rigorous attention to detail during data analysis tasks. Proficiency with Excel is essential; familiarity with Tableau or other analytics platforms will further enhance your effectiveness. Experience with leading industry systems such as Unavista or DTCC GTR is highly valued but not mandatory if you demonstrate adaptability and willingness to learn. Your interpersonal skills will shine through when engaging stakeholders or addressing queries-your approach is always considerate, responsive, and solution-oriented. Above all, your enthusiasm for regulation drives your commitment to staying informed about industry changes while contributing positively within a collaborative team setting.

• A minimum of three years' experience working within a Regulatory Transaction Reporting team or in an asset management role with significant exposure to regulatory reporting responsibilities.
• Expert-level understanding of EMIR regulations and/or MIFID II requirements relevant to transaction reporting within financial services.
• Demonstrable experience operating within Delegated Service models and Oversight frameworks related to regulatory compliance.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel with proven data analysis capabilities that enable you to interpret large datasets accurately.
• Familiarity with Tableau or similar data visualisation tools is considered beneficial for monitoring trends and generating actionable insights.
• Experience using industry-standard applications such as Unavista, DTCC GTR, Trade Echo, Charles River, Simcorp Dimension, IHS Markit, or Novatus would be advantageous but not essential.
• A genuine interest in financial regulation coupled with an eagerness to learn about new developments impacting transaction reporting requirements.
• Excellent communication skills that allow you to explain complex concepts clearly while building rapport with colleagues at all levels.
• Strong time management abilities that enable you to adapt flexibly when priorities shift or urgent issues arise within the team environment.
• Confidence in presenting ideas for process improvement initiatives aimed at enhancing operational efficiency.
