LSEG FX is a 24 x 5 global market. As such, the Director of FX Operations, APAC, will be part of a team with peer roles in the EMEA and AMERS regions.

LSEG FX has significant business growth ambitions and LSEG has increased investment in the FX business to support this growth. The Director of FX Operations, APAC will be a key partner in achieving these ambitions.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

The Director of FX Operations, APAC will be responsible for delivering a high quality, stable and resilient operational service and excellent customer experience, during the APAC trading hours. The Director of FX Operations, APAC will be responsible for the following:

Customer Support Live Service

• Oversee Customer Support. Ensure that Customer Support is available, fit-for-purpose and meets SLA performance metrics
• Monitor and report service and case performance against objectives, KPIs and SLAs
• Hold regular service review meetings with key stakeholders to share performance data, insights, trends, progress against goals and opportunities to improve the customer experience
• Develop and maintain relationships across Operations, Technology and Business stakeholders to achieve business outcomes
• Be a point of escalation for FX incidents and intervene in incident management and communications as-and-when required

Pro-active Market Management

• Venue and platform stability through pro-active operational oversight, management and intervention is a priority for the Group. Recent FX Venues outages and extended incident resolution durations across legacy FX venues highlighted the need for a revised approach in the service model in support of both the re-platformed Matching venues (on the FXI platform) and those venues in states of transition from legacy technologies into strategic platforms. In response to this, FX Operations has established an FX Service Model equivalent to that of the LSEG Equities venues. This not only more closely aligns FX Venues to the Equities template but creates teams more focused upon business health of the venues and pro-active customer support.
• The result of this is the establishment of the FX Live Operations team.
• The Director of FX Operations, APAC will be responsible for the management of this team in the APAC trading hours and the delivery of the pro-active Market Management service.

Service Improvement

• Recent concerns about the quality of Customer Support have resulted in the establishment of a Service Improvement Programme. This programme will make significant changes to the structure of, and procedures followed by, the Customer Support teams. The programme has been defined in partnership with the LSEG FX business and has full syndication and support.
• The Director of FX Operations, APAC will be responsible (jointly with the Head of FX Operations and the other Directors of FX Operations) for the ongoing improvement of the FX Operations service and the delivery of the improvement programmes.
