MiFIR Transactions and Trade Reporting Specialist

MiFIR Transactions and Trade Reporting Specialist

Outside IR35, initial 3 month contract (Remote)

Immediate/ASAP start

We're supporting a fintech on an search for an experienced MiFIR transaction and trade reporting specialist to lead a reporting remediation project.

Our client has identified a gap in their MiFIR reporting and needs a contractor to come in and fix it - this is a hands-on, implementation-focused role, not an advisory one.

What you'll do

• Diagnose the root cause(s) of the identified reporting gap across the instruments in scope
• Design and implement the remediation approach, including any back-reporting or corrections required
• Review transaction reporting logic against MiFIR requirements (RTS 22 field-level requirements) for both UK MiFIR and EU MiFIR, and identify where the two regimes diverge
• Work with data/engineering teams to fix underlying data quality or mapping issues driving the gap
• Document the remediation for audit and regulatory purposes
• Liaise with Compliance, Legal, and Operations stakeholders as needed

What we're looking for

• Strong hands-on experience with MiFIR transaction and trade reporting (RTS 22 / RTS 23), ideally with exposure to both UK MiFIR (post-Brexit onshored regime) and EU MiFIR, and a clear understanding of where they differ
• Solid instrument knowledge across the scope: bonds, commercial paper, securitised products (ABS/CLO), FX swaps, and interest rate swaps
• Experience running or contributing to a reporting remediation, back-reporting exercise, or similar regulatory fix
• Comfortable working with data - able to interrogate reporting datasets, spot patterns/root causes, and work with SQL or similar tools (adjust to your actual requirement)
• Familiarity with reporting fields, ISINs/UPIs, LEIs, and reference data as they relate to transaction reporting
• Able to start quickly given the urgency of this engagement
