Fund Operations Analyst

The role : Fund Operations Analyst

As our first Fund Operations Analyst, you\'ll be hands-on running and building the operational backbone that moves several hundred million euros of client money every month - across multiple funds, multiple currencies, and a regulated entity. This is a hybrid role: part production (executing daily operations end-to-end), part build (designing the systems, controls and automations that let those operations scale as Spiko grows across Europe).

Reporting to the Head of Finance and working closely with Product, Engineering, and our Legal & Compliance team, you\'ll sit at the intersection of fund operations, payment flows, financial infrastructure, regulatory reporting and customer experience. You\'ll have real autonomy and a direct hand in shaping how Spiko\'s operational backbone works as we expand.

Key Responsibilities

• Run daily middle office and payment operations
• Execute and monitor fund subscriptions and redemptions
• Manage banking flows: SWIFT, SEPA, multi-currency settlements
• Match incoming wires with client orders; identify and resolve mismatches and blocked operations
• Manage liquidity and ensure timely settlement across all flows
• Maintain reconciliation across funds, banks and entities

Own fund operations and valuation support

• Run the operational cycle of Spiko\'s 5 funds, each with distinct technical specifics
• Contribute to NAV and share-value calculation alongside our external fund administration partners
• Monitor and coordinate the portion of fund operations delegated to external partners
• Identify, escalate and resolve operational anomalies in fund mechanics

Contribute to financial infrastructure and new products

• Partner with Product and Engineering on infrastructure projects - instant withdrawals, segregation (cantonnement), creation of individual client accounts, routing across products
• Participate in the launch of new financial products end-to-end
• Work with our Legal & Compliance team on new agreements with banks, fund administrators and other partners
• Continuously automate and improve operational processes to scale without breaking

Contribute to regulatory reporting and risk

• Participate in regulatory and risk reporting - including prudential reporting to ACPR
• Implement and improve first-line controls on client money flows
• Strengthen the auditability and robustness of operational processes

Support clients on operational matters

• Track and accompany clients on subscriptions, redemptions, transfers and withdrawals
• Resolve operational issues affecting client money movements
• Act as a bridge between operations and our customer-facing teams

Who we\'re looking for

We\'re open to several backgrounds - what matters most is operational rigor, autonomy, and a builder mindset in a regulated, fast-moving fintech environment.

Requirements (must-haves)

• 2 to 6 years of relevant experience, either:
• In operations at a B2B fintech (Banking Ops, Finance Ops or similar)
• Or in middle office / fund operations at an asset manager, bank, or fund admin firm (BNP Paribas AM, Amundi, SGSS, CACEIS, State Street, BNY Mellon and similar)
• Concrete track record of building or scaling operational processes (automation, tool design, workflow optimization)
• Comfort with data tools (SQL minimum; Python, Power BI a plus)
• Fluent in French and comfortable business fluency in English (daily working environment is bilingual)
• Builder mindset: prefer to design a process once than execute the same manual task twice

Nice to have

• Exposure to fund operations (NAV, UCITS, AIF, fund admin), full training provided otherwise
• Familiarity with regulated environments (ACPR, AMF, prudential reporting)
• Experience scaling ops from 0 to 1 (first ops hire experience)
• Blockchain / DeFi familiarity
• Notable achievement: scaled X to Y, automated Z%, reduced manual time by N%

What we offer

• Compensation: Competitive salary depending on experience + Stock Options
• Hybrid work - Remote friendly (2 days per week & 1 full week per month)
• The best tech for your job: latest-generation laptops and industry-leading software
• Office: in central Paris

• Monthly Budget to cover different perks of choice
• Transport: 50% of public transport pass covered or the Forfait Mobilités Durables (FMD)
• Referral Bonus
• Social life: regular afterworks and biannual offsites
