About the Position

Guggenheim is seeking a junior to mid-level Equities Operations Analyst (2-3 years of experience) to join its Equities Operations team. This individual will be part of a highly collaborative, cross-trained group responsible for critical support functions across the firm’s equities platform, including high-touch cash trading, low-touch electronic trading, international cash trading, options, and soft dollar activity. The successful candidate will provide day-to-day operations support and assist in implementing tactical process and system enhancements.

This role offers the opportunity to support a diverse and growing equities business, strengthen the firm’s control environment, and contribute directly to efficient trade execution and high-quality client service.

Specific Responsibilities

  • Report to the Director of Equities Operations and partner closely with Equities Sales & Trading, Electronic Trading, Equity Derivatives, Back Office, Technology, Compliance, and Finance.
  • Support the full trade lifecycle for cash equities, ETFs, listed options, and related equity instruments across high-touch, low-touch, and international flows, including trade capture, affirmation/confirmation, and settlement.
  • Monitor and resolve trade settlement issues and fails, coordinating with counterparties, clearing brokers, and custodians; assist with buy-ins and partial settlements as needed.
  • Support soft dollar and commission-sharing arrangements by ensuring accurate trade booking, allocation, and reconciliation in line with agreements and policies.
  • Perform daily position and cash reconciliations, identifying and resolving breaks through journal entries, workflow adjustments, and exception management.
  • Assist with corporate actions and income events by validating positions, coordinating with custodians, and ensuring accurate and timely reflection in internal systems.
  • Contribute to recurring and ad-hoc reporting for internal stakeholders, auditors, and regulators, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timely delivery.
  • Help identify and implement process and workflow improvements, including basic automation and standardization, to enhance efficiency and reduce operational risk.
  • Maintain strong controls and ensure adherence to departmental and firmwide policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements.
  • Support other operations functions and project-related initiatives as directed by management.

Skills & Experience Required

  • Bachelor’s degree required, preferably in Finance, Business, Accounting, Economics, Technology, or a related field.
  • 2-3 years of experience in equities operations, middle office, or a closely related function at a broker-dealer, bank, asset manager, or prime broker.
  • Foundational understanding of the equities and listed options trade lifecycle, including key processes such as trade capture, settlement, fails management, and reconciliations.
  • Exposure to high-touch and electronic cash equities flows; familiarity with international markets and time zones is a plus.
  • Experience with industry platforms and vendors; familiarity with Fidessa and TraFix order management systems and Pershing’s NetX 360 clearing platform is a strong plus.
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel; familiarity with Access, VBA, or other analytical/automation tools is beneficial.
  • Detail-oriented with strong analytical and problem-solving skills and a control-focused mindset.
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment, manage multiple priorities, and meet tight deadlines.
  • Clear and professional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build effective working relationships with front office, support teams, and external counterparties.
  • Proactive, eager to learn, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a team.

Licenses / Certifications (if applicable)

  • Series 99 Operations Professional license will ultimately be required; candidates who do not currently hold the license must be willing and able to obtain it within the timeframe specified by the firm.
  • Additional registrations such as Series 7 may be beneficial and can be supported based on business needs.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
