Rebates Analyst - 16 months contract

Rebates Analyst

Who we're looking for
We are looking for a talented and motivated individual who will report to the Revenue and Rebates Operations Team Leader within the Finance department.
The Rebates Analyst plays a key role in calculating, accounting and reporting rebates due to intermediaries investing in pooled funds domiciled in EMEA, APAC and the UK.

In the past 15 years, the Schroders Group Finance function has expanded the role of the Revenue and Rebates Operations team in Luxembourg, creating a global centre of competence for the processing and booking of fees earned from pooled funds, as well as rebates calculated and paid to intermediaries globally.
