The four pillars of our strategy with Performance & Attribution are:

• To be a highly respected and fully independent team of professionals providing performance analytic services to our customers
• Strive for customer excellence and strong advocacy scores by building strong trusted relationships and helping them achieve their goals
• Build a scalable global operating model capable of meeting the firm’s growth ambitions whilst recognising local requirements
• Foster a team culture which is fully inclusive and strives for excellence by being “the best version of ourselves”

To help us achieve these goals we are working with our key partners (State Street and Factset) to build out a new global operating model.  This will not only standardise our services globally but move us to a position where performance & attribution is available across all funds daily.  In addition to this we will be fully embracing LGIM’s data strategy and the use of Marketplace (CDP).

Sitting within the performance and Attribution function, this role will help define, build and deliver an end-to-end service across all equity funds and PMC Client Policies.  The team will also be responsible for all board reporting and GIPS reporting, ensuring that LGIM remains compliant with the GIPS and FMPS standards.  This will involve building strong relationships with the heads of desks and their teams to understand their requirements and engaging with the STOM programme to ensure all inputs around capability and solution design are being considered and delivered. Additionally, this role requires managing and establishing relationships with various areas including Distribution, Investment Specialists, Client Service Operations and project leads to ensure the team service meets the requirements of our clients (both internally and externally).
