Your opportunity
TSA Ownership & Governance
Support management of the Transition Services Agreement (TSA) from post-signing through to the final executed agreement, helping maintain oversight throughout the TSA period until integration is complete.
Maintain and update the central view of TSA services, classifications, service levels, owners and dependencies across three firms.
Facilitate the monthly TSA governance forum with Insignia Financial, covering agenda, service level review, issue escalation, actions and follow-up.
Support maintenance of the TSA exit readiness tracker to help monitor exit progress, extension triggers and fee escalation.
Service Delivery Oversight
Monitor provider performance against agreed service levels for both core and non-core services, and evidence where delivery falls short of what was committed.
Track operational risk events, incidents, breaches and client complaints through to resolution within the agreed notification windows.
Identify and communicate potential service delivery concerns, providing supporting facts, business impact and recommended actions.
Support escalation of unresolved or material service issues to the Integration Programme Manager and Steering Committee, including relevant analysis and recommendations.
Relationship Management
Serve as a key day-to-day contact for provider project and service teams, helping maintain productive working relationships and support contractual obligations.
Work alongside the transferring investment teams in Sydney and Melbourne, and across UK and US time zones, to resolve issues before they need formal escalation.
Keep the relationship constructive: challenge performance without damaging the working partnership needed to exit the TSA cleanly.
Cross-Workstream Coordination
Coordinate TSA dependencies across Operations, Technology, Risk & Compliance, Legal, Distribution and Finance, given the agreement touches every workstream.
Translate contractual obligations into practical requirements that workstream leads can act on and drive them through to closure.
Identify and communicate where issues in one service may create risk in another, including Day 2 responsible entity transfer and Day 3 TSA exit dependencies
Hands-on Delivery
Take a hands-on approach to supporting delivery activities, including drafting mark-ups, coordinating stakeholder input, maintaining trackers and documenting meeting outcomes.
Be comfortable operating at both contractual detail and programme level, switching between the two as required.
Proactively identify gaps, ambiguity and unresolved placeholders in the agreement and drive them to a documented decision.
Carry out other duties as assigned.
