[Hiring] Senior Investment Operations Analyst @Careers Mutual Of Omaha

Role Description

Our Investment Operations team runs the middle office for Mutual of Omaha's investment portfolio — the connection point between the front office, accounting, data, technology, custodians, and counterparties. This senior seat on the Trade Management Services team runs the operational lifecycle for the derivatives platform: OTC products today, with cleared derivatives and exchange-traded futures coming as the program grows. It's an ownership role for someone who can run day-to-day derivative operations, serve as the escalation point for post trade processes including complex margin and settlement issues, and help design the processes and controls that let this work scale. For the right person, there's room to grow into a lead role.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in investment operations, middle office, or trade support, with real depth in derivatives operations.
• Strong command of the derivatives lifecycle and collateral mechanics across derivatives products including swaps, FX, futures, and options.
• Proven ownership of complex, non-standard work; investigates root causes and drives issues to resolution independently.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to influence across teams and lead through expertise.
• Strong desire to leverage technology to automate, improve internal controls and optimize post trading workflows.
• Ability to work remotely with reliable high-speed internet access while residing in the United States or Puerto Rico.

Requirements

• Own the operational lifecycle for OTC derivatives — booking, confirmation, settlement, and lifecycle events (resets, novations, terminations).
• Manage daily margin and collateral: margin call response and issuance, movement of cash and securities, and dispute resolution.
• Reconcile cash and exposure data between investment management systems and custodian/counterparty records.
• Help build out the operating model as the program scales and expands to cleared derivatives and exchange-traded products.
• Maintain the accuracy of derivative and complex-instrument data in the security master.
• Serve as a subject-matter expert and escalation point; drive standardization, automation, and root-cause fixes.

Benefits

• Estimated Salary: $68,000 - $107,000, plus annual bonus opportunity.
• 401(k) plan with a 2% company contribution and 6% company match.
• Work-life balance with vacation, personal time, and paid holidays.
