Multi-asset platform for capital markets

We are looking for a Technical Account Manager to join our TT Clearing & Post-Trade team. This is a hands-on role, you will own the full client lifecycle from requirements gathering through to production deployment and ongoing support. You will be responsible for a portfolio of clients, acting as their technical point of contact for all non-support matters, and support escalation point. Additional responsibilities include performing deliveries,and validating that what we deliver meets client expectations. 

This is not a purely client-facing or purely technical role. The value of a TAM lies in bridging client-facing and technical skills: you understand the product deeply enough to deploy it and troubleshoot advanced issues, and you communicate well enough to manage client expectations and negotiate with third parties.

 

Key Responsibilities

Technical Support

  • Handle support escalations as the primary point of contact for complex issues
  • Work closely with the support team to maintain awareness of your clients’ overall ticket pipeline in ServiceNow (SNOW)
  • Track and follow through on high-priority issues to ensure the timely delivery of sensitive changes
  • Proactively inform clients when critical fixes or updates are available

Client Ownership

  • Own the technical client relationship end-to-end, working hand-in-hand with the TT Service Manager who is responsible for the overall client relationship
  • Focus on the technical client relationship and serve as the primary liaison for Client Clearing contacts
  • Ensure a clear understanding of the client’s technical goals, infrastructure, data flows, and business needs
  • Host and attend regular conference calls on projects, on-boarding, and ongoing issues
  • Perform regular client status reviews and follow up on outstanding items

Technical Delivery & Training

  • On-board new clients and deliver training
  • Perform software deliveries and prepare upgrade procedures for deployed solution
  • Create technical specifications for changes or new modules
  • Validate deliverables from a functional perspective—does it meet the client’s original requirements?
  • You are accountable for what goes out to the client: nothing is delivered without your validation
  • Demo features to clients before delivery when significant changes are involved

External Coordination

  • Work with the TT Exchange connectivity team to coordinate with exchanges and third parties at the start of projects – negotiate test environments, obtain credentials and documentation
  • Manage timelines across multiple external parties (exchanges, infrastructure teams, developers)
  • Negotiate alternatives when standard prerequisites are not available (e.g. client-provided connectivity)

Commercial Coordination

  • Raise development requests through the appropriate channels
  • Track proposals and ensure all client requests are properly captured and followed up

 

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

Technical

  • Understanding of post-trade / clearing workflows and financial market infrastructure
  • SQL fundamentals: ability to write basic queries for database updates and custom module configuration
  • Basic networking: able to perform diagnostics (ping, telnet), understand NAT (IPs in logs vs. actual addresses), and have awareness of firewall rules
  • Comfortable working with software deployments and upgrade procedures

Client-facing & Coordination

  • Strong communication skills managing expectations, running calls, being a trusted point of contact.
  • Ability to drive progress with exchanges and third parties without having authority over their timelines
  • Comprehensive expertise in coordinating between technical teams and business stakeholders
  • Track record of managing 10 to 20 demanding clients, managing their expectations, with minimal escalations and oversight
  • Significant expertise in capturing business requirements and agreeing on acceptance criteria with clients.
Working Style
  • Organisational discipline – maintaining structured workflows and consistent follow-ups across multiple clients simultaneously
  • Autonomy: able to own a portfolio of clients end-to-end with minimal oversight
