Senior Prime Services Advisor / Transformation Consultant (Interim)
London | 12+ Month Programme of Work | £1200-£2000/Day
I’m working with a leading consulting organisation supporting a major European investment bank on a high-profile strategic transformation programme within its Prime Services business.
We’re looking to engage a highly experienced industry expert with deep Prime Services expertise who can operate as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, bringing practical experience gained from leading or transforming Prime Services businesses within an investment bank.
This is not a traditional delivery role. The successful consultant will provide strategic guidance, challenge existing thinking where appropriate, and help shape the future direction of a complex Front Office business. The client is specifically seeking someone with the credibility and gravitas that comes from having “been there and done it” in a senior leadership capacity.
We’re particularly interested in individuals with extensive experience across areas such as:
- Prime Brokerage / Prime Services
- Securities Finance / Securities Lending
- Equities Financing
- Margin Lending
- Clearing and Post-Trade Services
- Front Office Markets businesses
The ideal consultant will have a proven track record of:
- Leading or advising large-scale Front Office transformation programmes
- Designing and improving operating models across complex investment banking environments
- Working with executive stakeholders across Front Office, Operations, Risk, Treasury, Finance and Technology
- Developing strategic roadmaps balancing commercial, operational and regulatory priorities
- Understanding the commercial drivers of Prime Services businesses, including client strategy, financing, collateral, margin and balance sheet optimisation
- Building trusted relationships with senior business leaders and influencing decision-making at executive level
We’re open to speaking with current or former Managing Directors, Global Heads, Business Heads, Prime Services leaders, senior transformation executives and experienced industry consultants with demonstrable expertise in this space.
If this sounds relevant, or you know someone who would be a strong fit, I’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
