Mid Office Analyst - Digital Assets

As IMC's crypto business grows, you'll join the Mid Office team to ensure post-trade processes scale efficiently. In this role, you assist with day-to-day post-trade operations, gather business requirements from stakeholders, and work with developers to improve processes. This is an onsite position in Zug, Switzerland, with very limited flexibility for remote work.

What you'll do

• Perform daily reconciliation of positions, trades, and cash/token balances across centralized exchanges (CeFi), decentralized protocols (DeFi), and OTC counterparties
• Calculate and substantiate daily P&L across multiple asset types, ensuring valuation methodologies are applied consistently and correctly
• Investigate and resolve trade breaks, valuation discrepancies, and settlement issues by identifying root causes
• Build and maintain Python-based tools and notebooks to automate recurring reconciliation, reporting, and analysis workflows
• Query and manage data across internal databases to support reconciliation, reporting, and ad hoc analysis
• Synthesize complex, ambiguous situations spanning multiple venues, counterparties, or asset types into clear, streamlined deliverables for traders and senior management
• Partner with technology teams to scope and prioritize enhancements to reconciliation and valuation systems, and communicate complex operational issues in a clear, actionable way
• Gather requirements and data from various stakeholders (Trading, Finance, Risk, Technology) to identify issues and improve Mid Office processes

What you bring

• A Bachelor's degree in finance, economics, STEM, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent practical experience)
• 3+ years of experience in trading operations, middle office, product control, or a related function; crypto/digital asset experience strongly preferred
• Solid understanding of databases and data structures; SQL experience required
• Experience with P&L calculation, trade reconciliation, and valuation concepts across asset types
• Exceptional attention to detail and a high bar for data accuracy
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain issues clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• An owner mentality: you take ownership of tasks and projects, with a drive to understand the business beyond your own role to add value to the overall business

Nice to have

• Python skills, including experience with data libraries such as pandas and NumPy, and building automated workflows
• Familiarity with CeFi, DeFi, and OTC market structure, including exchange APIs, on-chain data, and bilateral settlement
