  • Investigate and resolve breaks and discrepancies, escalating complex issues appropriately where required.
  • Liaise with brokers, custodians, counterparties, and internal operational teams to obtain updates, confirmations, and resolve day-to-day corporate actions issues.
  • Perform daily reconciliations across systems, ensuring timely identification, investigation, and escalation of breaks.
  • Ensure strict adherence to SOPs, market cut-offs, regulatory requirements, and internal control procedures, and complete all required control checks, signoffs, and documentation in line with governance standards.
  • Support process improvement initiatives by identifying recurring manual touchpoints, common breaks, and operational inefficiencies, while using sound judgment to improve team quality, timeliness, and effectiveness.
  • Maintain accurate records of pending issues, client queries, and exceptions through internal trackers and reporting tools; collaborate effectively with senior associates and supervisors during peak periods, breaks, and market events; and provide informal guidance and support to junior team members.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or a related discipline.
  • 5–7 years’ experience in capital markets operations, preferably within corporate actions.
  • Solid understanding of corporate action processes across multiple asset classes, with familiarity with EMEA market practices and corporate action events.
  • Experience processing dividends, coupons, claims, reconciliations, and exception management within an operational environment.
  • Familiarity with industry platforms such as Euroclear, Clearstream, CREST, 24/Frontier, or similar systems is preferred.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other MS Office tools, with the ability to maintain accurate records and support reporting requirements.
  • Demonstrated analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate and resolve complex breaks independently and address typical or less frequent operational issues based on established procedures and precedents.
  • Strong attention to detail, stakeholder management, ownership, accountability, time management, risk awareness, collaboration skills, and the ability to apply knowledge of how the team works across functions to achieve shared objectives.

We are dedicated to fostering a collaborative, engaging, and inclusive environment and are committed to providing a workplace that empowers associates to be authentic and bring their best to work. We believe that associates do their best when they feel safe, understood, and valued, and we work diligently and collaboratively to ensure Broadridge is a company—and ultimately a community—that recognizes and celebrates everyone’s unique perspective.
