Middle Office Transformation - Asset Reconciliation Specialist (Aladdin)

Location: London - Hybrid
Contract: 6 months initially + extensions

We are looking for an experienced Middle Office / Asset Reconciliation Specialist to support a major transformation within a leading Asset Management organisation. The project involves bringing the Asset Reconciliation function from an outsourced provider in-house, using BlackRock Aladdin as the core platform.

Responsibilities

  • Support the transition of Asset Reconciliation from an outsourced to an in-house model.
  • Help design and implement the new reconciliation processes and operating model.
  • Work with Operations, Technology, and Change teams to define requirements.
  • Support reconciliation across positions/holdings, cash, and transactions.
  • Manage reconciliation breaks, exceptions, and operational issues.
  • Support Aladdin implementation activities, testing/UAT, parallel runs, and go-live.
  • Develop process documentation, SOPs, controls, and escalation procedures.
  • Identify opportunities to improve and automate reconciliation processes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
