The Company is seeking a Chief Operating Officer (COO) for its private credit and asset management division. The successful candidate will be responsible for leading and scaling the end-to-end target operating model, governance, and operational readiness for the asset management platform. This includes driving business planning, budgeting, expense management, and high-level Board/regulatory reporting. The COO will also own the New Product Approval process, oversee third-party fund administrators, custodians, and client servicing protocols, and maintain MAS CMS licensing compliance.

The ideal candidate will have proven capabilities in financial forecasting, budget control, and C-suite/Board level communications, and be a practical, hands-on leader who can combine strategic vision with operational ownership.
