Portfolio Data Migration Consultant - Alternative Investments (Contract)
3-6 Month Contract | London | Hybrid - 3-4 Days in Office | ASAP Start
Day Rate £400-500 per day via umbrella
An established alternative investment firm is undertaking a significant upgrade of its portfolio management infrastructure (PMS) and is looking for an experienced Portfolio Data Migration Consultant to join the project on an interim basis.
Sitting at the intersection of investments, finance, operations and technology, the role will focus on ensuring the firm's investment data is accurate, complete and ready to migrate onto a new Portfolio Management System (PMS). This is not simply a data-cleansing exercise. You will need to understand what sits behind the numbers. Working across a portfolio spanning private equity and direct lending, you will interrogate investment data and reconcile key attributes back to underlying records and legal documentation. This could include reviewing loan characteristics, investment terms, transaction data, investment-period end dates and other critical portfolio information.
You will identify inconsistencies and missing information, work with the relevant teams to resolve them and help establish a reliable dataset ahead of migration. Following migration, you may also support reconciliation, testing and UAT to ensure information has transferred accurately and the new platform operates as intended.
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.
