We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content.
We need to extract content: The posting includes:
- About the role? There's "A bit about us:" describing firm. Also "Why join us?" etc. Could be "About the role" maybe combine.
- Responsibilities: The "What You Will Do:" list.
- Requirements: "What We Require:" list.
- Qualifications: maybe overlapping with requirements; but we can treat "What We Require:" as Requirements.
- Skills: maybe list of skills like Excel, SQL/VBA, AI tools, Power BI/Alteryx/Python, etc.
- Benefits: "Standard benefits: Medical Dental Vision PTO" plus "Full benefits package available." Also "Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility." Also "Flexible Job Schedule: Monday - Thursday". Also "Hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays)". Also "Full-time." Also "Salaried, DOE." So we have Pay: Salary range $95,000 - $125,000 per year. Also "Salaried, DOE." So Pay section.
- Schedule: Hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), Flexible Job Schedule: Monday - Thursday, Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility.
We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent.

- Schedule: Hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), Flexible Job Schedule: Monday - Thursday, Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility.
We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need headings
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We should only include sections where there is real specific content.
Let's decide sections:
- About the role: Could include description of firm and role context: "A bit about us:" and "Why join us?" and maybe "Job details: Join a top-tier global alternative asset manager's Operations team - hands-on collateral & derivatives work, hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), and real opportunity to modernize processes with automation/AI." Also "This Jobot Job is hosted by: Hunter King" maybe minor metadata; we can drop or put in short p. We'll include about the role as prose.
- Responsibilities: The "What You Will Do:" list.
- Requirements: The "What We Require:" list.
- Qualifications: Could be overlapping; maybe we can skip Qualifications if not distinct. But we could treat "Undergraduate degree with a strong GPA. 2 years minimum of relevant Investment Operations experience..." as qualifications. However the instruction says use headings for Qualifications if posting has real specific content. The posting includes "What We Require:" which is basically qualifications. We could put that under Requirements and maybe not have Qualifications separate. But we need to decide: The instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. It doesn't forbid combining; but we should follow typical sections. Could have both Requirements and Qualifications if distinct. However the posting doesn't separate them clearly; it's all under "What We Require:" which includes education, experience, technical skills, etc. So we could put that under Requirements and maybe not have Qualifications. Or we could split: Requirements = technical skills, Qualifications = education/experience. But risk of inventing. Safer to have only Requirements section and maybe Skills section for technical skills. But we also have Skills heading.
We have Skills: could list Excel, SQL/VBA, AI tools, Power BI/Alteryx/Python, etc. Also "Strong communicator, highly organized, detail-oriented, motivated, adaptable, and proactive." That's more soft skills.
We could put technical skills under Skills, and soft skills maybe under Requirements or Qualifications.
But we need to avoid duplication.
Let's parse the posting for distinct pieces:
- About the firm/role: "A bit about us: We are a leading global alternative asset management firm with several hundred billion dollars in assets under management, investing across private equity, credit, real estate, and market solutions. Our success depends on our people - we build and sustain a world-class team through a culture of collaboration, innovation, and inclusion, combining deep product and sector expertise to deliver differentiated insights for our investors and portfolio companies."
- Why join us? "Work within a small, high-impact Operations team supporting Credit and Real Estate strategies, with direct exposure to cleared and bilateral derivatives, repo, and prime brokerage activity. Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility. Genuine opportunity to shape process improvements and automation initiatives (AI, Alteryx, workflow tools) rather than just executing daily tasks. Collaborative, fast-paced environment with strong mentorship and growth potential."
- Job details earlier: "Join a top-tier global alternative asset manager's Operations team - hands-on collateral & derivatives work, hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), and real opportunity to modernize processes with automation/AI."
We can combine these into About the role.
- Responsibilities: "What You Will Do:" list bullet points.
- Requirements/Qualifications: "What We Require:" list bullet points.
- Skills: maybe we can extract from requirements: "Strong background in Excel (lookups, pivot tables, conditional logic, macros). SQL or VBA experience. Solid experience working with AI tools. Intermediate-level experience in at least one of: Power BI, Alteryx, or Python. Experience with Geneva (GL), collateral management systems, VBA, or SQL is a plus. Knowledge of collateral management preferred but not required. Project management experience preferred but not required. Strong communicator, highly organized, detail-oriented, motivated, adaptable, and proactive."
We could treat these as Skills (technical) and maybe also as Requirements. But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps we put the list under Requirements (including education/experience) and then Skills separate for technical competencies. However the instruction says use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have multiple lists.
We need to decide sections to include: About the role (prose), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (list), Skills (list), Benefits (list), Pay (prose), Schedule (prose). Qualifications maybe omitted if covered.
Let's extract content for each.
About the role prose: Combine:
- "Join a top-tier global alternative asset manager's Operations team - hands-on collateral & derivatives work, hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), and real opportunity to modernize processes with automation/AI."
- "A bit about us: We are a leading global alternative asset management firm with several hundred billion dollars in assets under management, investing across private equity, credit, real estate, and market solutions. Our success depends on our people - we build and sustain a world-class team through a culture of collaboration, innovation, and inclusion, combining deep product and sector expertise to deliver differentiated insights for our investors and portfolio companies."
- "Why join us? Work within a small, high-impact Operations team supporting Credit and Real Estate strategies, with direct exposure to cleared and bilateral derivatives, repo, and prime brokerage activity. Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility. Genuine opportunity to shape process improvements and automation initiatives (AI, Alteryx, workflow tools) rather than just executing daily tasks. Collaborative, fast-paced environment with strong mentorship and growth potential."
We can combine into a few paragraphs.
Responsibilities list: from "What You Will Do:" bullet points:
- Manage daily margin movements for cleared/bilateral derivatives, repos, and prime brokerage accounts.
- Maintain the firm's collateral management system to ensure compliance with control policies.
- Book cash movements to meet obligations and return excess exposure to funds.
- Set up and maintain all collateral agreement reference data.
- Reconcile cash collateral positions daily and investigate breaks.
- Oversee an offshore collateral team to ensure daily processing deliverables are met.
- Interface with counterparty, prime broker, custodian, and fund admin contacts to maintain account relationships.
- Test and implement cash and collateral system enhancements.
- Automate manual processes using AI and workflow applications (e.g., Alteryx).
- Analyze data and operational risk, building out controls to mitigate exposure.
- Review and validate regulatory reporting metrics (e.g., UMR) and onboard ISDA funds to Counterparty Manager.
- Support cleared/bilateral derivatives transaction processing.
We need to preserve all.
Requirements list: from "What We Require:" bullet points (including education/experience etc.):
- Undergraduate degree with a strong GPA.
- 2 years minimum of relevant Investment Operations experience (collateral, from an operations perspective - not desk-side).
- Strong background in Excel (lookups, pivot tables, conditional logic, macros).
- SQL or VBA experience.
- Solid experience working with AI tools.
- Intermediate-level experience in at least one of: Power BI, Alteryx, or Python.
- Experience with Geneva (GL), collateral management systems, VBA, or SQL is a plus.
- Knowledge of collateral management preferred but not required.
- Project management experience preferred but not required.
- Strong communicator, highly organized, detail-oriented, motivated, adaptable, and proactive.
We could split: maybe Requirements = education/experience; Skills = technical skills. But we can keep all under Requirements and maybe not have Skills. However we have a Skills heading available; we could put technical skills there. But we risk duplication if we also list them under Requirements. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can duplicate? It didn't forbid duplication but better to avoid redundancy. However we could split: Requirements: education and experience; Skills: technical and soft skills. Let's do that.
Thus:
Requirements (education/experience):
- Undergraduate degree with a strong GPA.
- 2 years minimum of relevant Investment Operations experience (collateral, from an operations perspective - not desk-side).
Skills (technical and soft):
- Strong background in Excel (lookups, pivot tables, conditional logic, macros).
- SQL or VBA experience.
- Solid experience working with AI tools.
- Intermediate-level experience in at least one of: Power BI, Alteryx, or Python.
- Experience with Geneva (GL), collateral management systems, VBA, or SQL is a plus.
- Knowledge of collateral management preferred but not required.
- Project management experience preferred but not required.
- Strong communicator, highly organized, detail-oriented, motivated, adaptable, and proactive.
Benefits list: from posting:
- "Standard benefits: Medical Dental Vision PTO"
- "Full benefits package available."
- Also "Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility." but that's schedule.
- Also "Flexible Job Schedule: Monday - Thursday"
- Also "Hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays)"
- Also "Full-time."
- Also "Salaried, DOE." (Pay)
- Also "Salaried, DOE." maybe pay.
Thus Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO. Also "Full benefits package available." Could be a prose statement.
We'll make Benefits list: Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO. And maybe note "Full benefits package available." as prose.
Pay: Salary range $95,000 - $125,000 per year. Also "Salaried, DOE." We'll include both.
Schedule: Hybrid schedule (WFH Fridays), Flexible Job Schedule: Monday - Thursday, Hybrid schedule with work-from-home flexibility. Also "Full-time." We'll combine.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with headings
and appropriate
or

We must not include any markdown fences.
Let's craft:
