Korn Ferry is partnering with a leading global financial services institution to identify experienced regulatory reporting consultants for its Asset & Wealth Management business.
These consultants will provide hands-on support during the team's peak year-end reporting cycle, when annual fund reporting obligations overlap with quarter-end deadlines. The work involves preparing regulatory filings, validating underlying fund data, resolving reporting issues, and coordinating with colleagues across domestic and international teams.
This assignment carries Associate-level responsibilities. The client strongly prefers experienced professionals who can quickly understand the work, take ownership of assignments, and contribute with limited training.
