The posting

Position Overview

Apollo Global Management is seeking an Associate to join its Investment Operations team, with primary responsibility for Security Master and Investment Reference Data management across the insurance platform.

This role sits at the core of investment operations, ensuring the accurate setup, governance, and synchronization of securities and reference data across multiple internal platforms. The Associate will be responsible for interpreting governing documents, validating key economic terms, and maintaining the integrity of security data that supports trading, accounting, risk, and reporting functions.

Given the breadth of Apollo’s platform and the complexity of private credit and structured products, this role requires strong operational judgment, attention to detail, and an understanding of end-to-end investment workflows.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Lead the setup and ongoing maintenance of private and structured securities within internal Security Master platforms.
  • Perform detailed review of Credit Agreements and governing documents to extract and validate key security terms (e.g., issuer, coupon, payment dates, amortization schedules, covenants).
  • Ensure accurate synchronization of security reference data across multiple systems, including Everest, VPM, Markit EDM, Thinkfolio, and PAM.
  • Partner with deal teams, traders, portfolio managers, Insurance oversight, and Quant teams to validate new security setups and resolve discrepancies.
  • Maintain and troubleshoot Residential Mortgage Loan (RML) and Commercial Mortgage Loan (CML) security records, ensuring completeness and accuracy.
  • Execute reconciliations and data quality controls to preserve the integrity of investment, accounting, and reporting outputs.
  • Support testing and implementation efforts related to system enhancements, integrations, and workflow improvements.
  • Serve in a lead or supporting capacity on cross-platform operational initiatives impacting Security Master and reference data processes.
  • Identify opportunities to strengthen controls, improve automation, and enhance data governance within the Security Master function.

Qualifications & Experience

Required

  • Undergraduate degree with 3–6+ years of relevant experience in investment operations, security master, reference data, or asset servicing.
  • Experience setting up and maintaining fixed income, private credit, or structured product securities.
  • Ability to read and interpret Credit Agreements and other governing documents to extract key economic and structural terms.
  • Strong understanding of security lifecycle events and downstream operational impacts (trading, accounting, reporting).
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
  • Demonstrated attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and ability to operate with urgency in a deadline-driven environment.
  • Comfort communicating directly with traders, portfolio managers, and cross-functional stakeholders.

Preferred

  • Experience with mortgage products (RML and CML).
  • Familiarity with Security Master or reference data platforms such as VPM, Everest, PAM, Thinkfolio, or Markit EDM.
  • Experience with Bloomberg and credit rating agencies (S&P, Moody’s, Fitch).
  • Exposure to insurance asset management or separately managed account platforms.
  • Experience participating in system implementations or workflow redesign initiatives.
  • Appreciation for data governance, controls, and operational risk management frameworks.
