Position Overview

The successful candidate will be responsible for overseeing the company’s post-trade operations and settlement functions, ensuring that all transactions are settled safely, accurately, efficiently, and in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. The role will also support large-value transactions for high-net-worth clients.

This position currently manages one junior operations specialist. The team is expected to expand in line with the company’s business growth.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee the end-to-end post-trade and settlement process for securities, bonds, and other financial products, ensuring accurate, efficient, and compliant settlement.

  • Develop and continuously optimize settlement solutions, operational procedures, and risk-control mechanisms tailored to high-net-worth clients and large-value transactions.

  • Lead the planning and development of the company’s settlement infrastructure, including systems, workflows, operating procedures, and internal control frameworks.

  • Manage relationships and coordinate with counterparties, custodian banks, settlement institutions, and other external service providers to establish an efficient and reliable settlement network.

  • Develop a thorough understanding of the transaction structures, settlement mechanics, and key risks associated with different financial products and underlying assets.

  • Establish standardized, scalable settlement procedures and operating guidelines to support business growth.

  • Manage the team’s day-to-day operations and work allocation, overseeing critical activities such as trade settlement, cash and position reconciliation, and exception handling.

  • Identify and manage operational risks throughout the settlement lifecycle.

  • Handle settlement exceptions and urgent operational issues, coordinating with internal and external stakeholders to ensure timely resolution and business continuity.

  • Support the company’s licensing, regulatory, and business development requirements by connecting front-office activities with middle- and back-office functions.

  • Provide operational support for the company’s core businesses, including Debt Capital Markets (DCM), asset management, and brokerage.

  • Drive the standardization, automation, and continuous improvement of settlement processes to support the company’s future expansion.

Qualifications and Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree or above, preferably in finance, accounting, economics, or a related discipline.

  • 3 to 5 years of full-time experience in securities settlement, post-trade operations, or a related function within Hong Kong’s financial services industry. Professional expertise and hands-on project experience will be considered more important than length of service alone.

  • In-depth knowledge of Hong Kong securities market settlement mechanisms, operating rules, and regulatory and compliance requirements.

  • Strong hands-on experience in the end-to-end settlement and risk management of mainstream financial products, including securities and bonds.

  • Proven experience in establishing, optimizing, and implementing settlement infrastructure or middle- and back-office operating frameworks.

  • Ability to independently lead settlement standardization and operational efficiency initiatives from planning through implementation.

  • An established network within Hong Kong’s financial services industry, together with strong capabilities in external stakeholder management, coordination, and resource integration.

  • Previous team management experience, with the ability to allocate work effectively, coach junior employees, and develop team capabilities.

  • Familiarity with the regulatory and compliance requirements applicable to the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission’s Type 1, Type 4, and Type 9 regulated activities is preferred.

  • Detail-oriented and highly accountable, with strong risk awareness, resilience under pressure, problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage urgent or unexpected situations.

  • Fluency in spoken and written Mandarin and English, with the ability to support daily business communication, cross-regional collaboration, and professional documentation.
