About Capmark Advisory
Capmark Advisory is a global management and technology consulting firm built for financial institutions and energy markets. We work alongside the executives who own the outcome — from strategy and target operating model through to live, regulated delivery.
Our teams are senior by design. We are small on purpose: every engagement is staffed with practitioners who have run the change they advise on, not a pyramid of generalists.
The opportunity
Work at the centre of delivery: turning how a desk, operations team or finance function works today into a design the programme can build, test and land.
What you will work on
- Map current-state processes across front office, operations, risk or finance, and document how work actually flows.
- Run structured analysis on positions, trades, reference data and reconciliations to evidence where change is needed.
- Write the requirements, user stories and acceptance criteria that engineering and vendor teams build against.
- Prepare testing and cutover materials, and support UAT with the client's own teams.
What you will deliver
- Current-state and target-state process documentation the whole programme works from.
- Requirements and acceptance criteria that survive contact with build teams.
- Test scenarios and reconciliation evidence that give sign-off real meaning.
What we are looking for
- One to four years in financial services, energy trading or consulting, ideally close to trading, operations, treasury or finance.
- Strong analytical writing: you can turn a messy workshop into a clear, structured document.
- Comfort with data: Excel and SQL at a working level; you check numbers rather than accept them.
- Right to work in the UK or Australia.
Experience that will help you succeed
- Exposure to a trading, settlement, risk or finance platform such as Murex, Calypso, an ETRM or an in-house equivalent.
- Time on a delivery programme: requirements, testing, cutover or PMO.
- A finance, economics, engineering or quantitative degree.
Additional experience we value
- Reconciliation or data-quality work on positions, cash or P&L.
- Regulatory change exposure across reporting, capital or market conduct.
- Python or VBA scripting for analysis.
How we work
We deliver inside Capmark's five-stage engagement method: Assess, Define, Mobilise, Implement and Sustain. You will work directly with senior client stakeholders, own a clear part of the outcome, and be supported by a Principal accountable for the engagement.
What we offer
- Senior, high-trust work with real ownership from day one — no bench, no busywork.
- Direct exposure to C-suite stakeholders at leading financial institutions and energy trading organisations.
- A genuinely flat, senior team where the best idea wins.
- Competitive compensation and a deliberate investment in your development.
