As the Senior PM for the UMI workstream, you will drive the execution and governance of the following core deliverables:

Technology & Data Architecture: Manage the development of a resilient target-state technology and data architecture, ensuring streamlined data flows from front-office execution to back-office settlement.
Cross-Functional Interaction Models: Facilitate the design and implementation of clear interaction models, specifically focusing on Product Control / Valuation and the handoffs between Finance and Risk.

Data Governance & Book of Record: Lead the project planning around critical data deliverables, including the definition of authoritative sources / master data, the adaptation of a Capital Markets canonical data model, and target Book of Record design.
Service & Support Design: Coordinate the design of a modern service and support operating model tailored to the high-stakes requirements of a unified Capital Markets landscape.
Execution Planning & Dependency: Shift the initiative from strategy to execution by developing a detailed, phased transition roadmap. Identify critical technical/operational prerequisites, map cross-functional dependencies, and prioritize "quick wins" alongside foundational architecture builds.
