3 weeks ago


Washington, United States The Structured Finance Association Full time

Position Summary

As a member of the policy team, the Analyst will assist with delivering on SFA policy objectives as well as monitor legislative, regulatory, and market developments impacting our members, the global capital markets, and consumer and business lending markets. The Analyst will support the SFA policy team and members by gathering market information, research, and analysis to help explore regulatory and legislative issues and build consensus positions through direct member engagement. The Analyst will assist in preparing external communications for members, Capitol Hill, regulators, and the public – including the preparation of the Association’s online newsletters. While the role primarily focuses on policy and regulatory affairs, the Analyst will also collaborate with colleagues in our Research, Government Relations, and Events teams to deliver on the strategic priorities of SFA and our members.


This is an amazing opportunity for an inquisitive, energetic, and personable individual interested in joining a large and still-growing trade association – and provides an opportunity to interact with senior leaders in the structured finance industry, policymakers, and legislators. The successful candidate should have a strong interest in learning, via hands-on experience, more about capital markets and lending markets and its intersection with regulatory affairs and public policy, including subject matters such as housing, auto and student loan finance, broker-dealer practices, and investor disclosure and reporting. They must have strong critical thinking skills, be a confident outward facing communicator able to manage multiple projects and deliverables simultaneously, meet tight deadlines, and be able to take on new challenges and solve problems. 


Key Responsibilities

Working with the Head of Policy and the members of the Policy team, you will support the development and implementation of regulatory policy positions, advocacy strategies, and market standards for issues critical to the structured finance market and the consumers and businesses the market finances.


Policy Development and Management

-        Ensure that SFA stays abreast of key policy developments and relevant external issues that could impact the structured finance market and its members.

-       Track regulatory and policy developments across financial regulatory agencies such as the SEC, CFPB, FHFA, FDIC, and Federal Reserve to identify changes in the regulatory and public policy environment.

-       Conduct analysis on a variety of policy and regulatory issues impacting the securitization industry that will be used to facilitate engagement with our members and stakeholders, both internally and externally.

-        Assist with advancing SFA’s continued leadership with regulatory staff, policymakers, and other external market stakeholders.

-       Assist with creating content and communication to inform our members, policymakers, and other stakeholders, to advance policy and advocacy initiatives. Contribute to other projects that arise in support of SFA’s policy and advocacy efforts.


Member Engagement & Advancement

-       Foster positive relationships with representatives at SFA member firms by responding to inquiries, following through on SFA deliverables, and supporting effective member engagement.

-       Manage day-to-day organizational tasks, including scheduling and managing logistics of member conference calls and committee meetings.

-       Oversee publication of SFA’s weekly newsletter processes and develop website and social media content highlighting the work done by SFA.

-       Manage contact lists and ensure member database is current.

-       Provide support for SFA’s symposiums, roundtables, webinars, and other member events.

The position is located in Washington, D.C., with a hybrid work environment. 

 

As a representative of the premier securitization trade organization, the successful candidate is expected to have strong written and oral communication skills and exemplify SFA’s high professional standards. While the candidate may not have a strong finance background, a successful candidate will have the drive to learn more about our market paired with strong self-initiative and a collaborative attitude.


Professional Experience, Skills, & Qualifications

-       An undergraduate degree is required, preferably with courses in finance and economics.

-       1-2 years of experience in a financial services or policy role is preferred. Knowledge of the financial services regulatory environment is a plus.

-       Strong computer skills — MS Office Suite required, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Experience with data management software such as Salesforce, and video conference software, such as Zoom is highly desirable.

-       Strong organizational and project management skills, and the ability to prioritize multiple tasks in a dynamic environment.
