Lead Technical PM - Prime Services & Risk Technology - J13088

Our client, a well-capitalized securities firm with an extensive Asia footprint and direct cross-border market access, is looking for a strong PM to join their Prime Brokerage team.

The Role & Landscape

You will lead front-to-back technology delivery across Prime Brokerage, Margin Financing, Securities Lending (SBL), and Enterprise Risk Management. This is not a purely administrative project coordination role; you will actively participate in functional architecture, data flows, and systems integration between front-office order execution and middle-office risk platforms.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Lead multi-disciplinary project delivery from requirements discovery through solution design, system testing, go-live, and post-implementation support.
2. Partner directly with Front Office trading desks, Risk Management, Operations, Compliance, and engineering teams to translate trading and financing requirements into functional technical specs.
3. Drive enhancements across proprietary and vendor-backed risk platforms, focusing on real-time trade capture, position management, exposure calculations, margin engines, and risk greeks.
4. Manage dependencies, release milestones, integration risks, and vendor deliveries across distributed development teams.
5. Identify practical opportunities to modernize workflows, automate manual operational handoffs, and streamline post-trade efficiency.

What We Are Looking For

1. Experience: 15+ years of technical project delivery, business analysis, or change management experience within an investment bank, institutional brokerage, or capital markets environment.
2. Domain Knowledge: Strong, practical knowledge of Prime Brokerage products, specifically Margin Financing, Securities Lending / SBL, and Collateral Management.
3. Risk Systems: Hands-on experience working on systems covering live position management, P&L, exposure calculations, and risk greeks.
4. Technical Grounding: Prior background in hands-on Java development or enterprise system integration is highly valued.
5. Methodologies: Solid track record running projects under Agile, Waterfall, or hybrid SDLC setups.
6. Languages: Fluency in both English and Mandarin (written and spoken) is required to engage with regional and cross-border business and engineering stakeholders.

Why Apply To This Role

1. High Visibility: You sit directly with trading desks, risk managers, and technology leaders, giving your work immediate operational relevance.
2. Technical Depth: You get to shape platform architecture and integration strategy rather than just policing Gantt charts and tracking tickets.
3. Robust Project Pipeline: Take ownership of well-funded, core execution and prime finance platforms backed by a leading cross-border financial institution.

If this outstanding opportunity sounds like your next career move, please submit through "Apply Now" or send your resume in Word format to Lu Zhang at [email protected] and put Lead Technical PM - Prime Services & Risk Technology - J13088 in the subject header.
