Job Description
What is the opportunity?
RBC BlueBay Asset Management (UK) Limited is seeking an individual to join the Loans Servicing team within our Operations department, based in our London office.
The team provide support across the syndicated loan lifecycle to various Portfolios and Collateralised Loan Obligation companies managed by RBC, working closely with Loan Closing, Investment Teams, Agent Banks and other internal teams.
You will play a pivotal role by ensuring accurate processing of lifecycle events, resolving system reconciliation breaks, and maintaining data integrity across multiple platforms.
Beyond day-to-day servicing work, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to process improvements that enhance operational efficiency and support the broader operations function—making a tangible impact on how we operate at scale.
Should you be shortlisted, do please let us know if you have any specific requirements for the interview.
This is a permanent, full-time role and requires 4 days in the 100 Bishopsgate, London office.
What will you do?
- Monitor and process upcoming lifecycle events and scheduled loan activity including:
- Rollovers – managing interest accruals and rollover payments on scheduled payment dates.
- Paydowns/Principal Repayments – processing scheduled and unscheduled repayments and adjusting unsettled trades accordingly.
- Restructures – managing loan restructuring to new facilities with updated terms, rates, and maturity dates.
- Unfunded Facilities – tracking and processing drawdowns on delayed draw and undrawn commitments.
- Perform daily system reconciliations (WSO vs Simcorp, Charles River vs Simcorp) to ensure loan positions are accurate and aligned.
- Review and resolve reconciliation breaks, investigating root causes and communicating cause analysis to multiple stakeholders.
- Process trade settlements from Clearpar, ensuring accurate fee application, contract setup, and seamless integration across WSO, Simcorp, and Charles River systems.
- Reconcile interest payments against notices received from agents, investigating discrepancies and ensuring accurate data in internal systems.
- Collaborate with external agents and internal teams (Investment Teams, Finance, Portfolio Managers) to resolve issues and ensure smooth processing.
- Document activity and aging breaks to track progress and communicate status to stakeholders.
- Maintain awareness of system upgrades, enhancements, and support ad-hoc projects and developing business requirements across our CLO funds globally.
- Operate within the existing operational risk framework whilst identifying any potential new controls or enhancements.
