Middle Office Analyst Glasgow, Scotland
Job description
Middle Office Analyst
Glasgow
As a Barclays Middle Office Analyst, you will handle a wide range of trade support and fund administration duties. You will play a crucial role in delivering change projects, and you will work in a team that undertake several functions including reconciliations, trade processing, settlements, price capture and verification, NAV shadowing, NAV and cash flow receipt monitoring, corporate action, fee processing and MI/KRI production. Lastly, your team supports Change Delivery and New Products to meet the changing needs of the business.
Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality, and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.
We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We’re flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month, or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally can request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
