Your Mission As lemon.markets continues to grow and expands the range of instruments on our platform, corporate actions will naturally become a bigger and more important part of our day-to-day operations. That’s why we’re hiring our first Corporate Actions Specialist: someone who takes full ownership of the end-to-end lifecycle, from announcement capture and validation through elections, entitlement calculation, to final settlement and reconciliation. You’ll work closely with Product and Engineering to shape how the process should run and to translate it into clear documentation and system requirements. Once live, you’ll ensure the daily execution is smooth, consistent, and customer-first, because these events sit at the heart of a reliable investing experience. Over time, you’ll help us automate as much as possible as volumes grow, while also raising corporate actions knowledge across the Investing Operations team. This role is a unique chance to build, run, and continuously optimise an entire function. In this role you will: - Own the end-to-end corporate actions lifecycle across our growing instrument universe, from announcement capture and validation through elections processing, entitlement calculation, and final settlement. - Partner with Product and Engineering to design and scale the operating model, turning real-world event flows into clear requirements, workflows, and screens that work in practice. - Coordinate seamlessly with external stakeholders (custodians, issuers, depositories, brokers, and other counterparties) to ensure events are processed accurately and on time. - Manage regulatory, tax, and market reporting obligations, meeting disclosure requirements, market deadlines, and internal control standards. - Drive continuous improvement and automation, standardising processes, reducing operational risk, and implementing system and tooling enhancements as volumes increase. - Build and share corporate actions knowledge internally, creating SOPs, event playbooks, operational handbooks, and policy documentation to upskill the broader team. You’ll be successful in this role if you: - Bring deep, hands-on experience in Corporate Actions Operations across fintechs, banks, custodians, brokers, or asset servicers, covering the full end-to-end lifecycle from event capture and validation through elections, taxation, reconciliation, and settlement. Exposure to broader investment/market operations is a strong plus. - Have practical familiarity with the German retail investing market, and understand how European regulatory requirements translate into day-to-day operational realities (e.g., tax reporting, disclosures, and market deadlines). - Are comfortable operating within custody structures and market infrastructure (including CSDs/depositories) and can build effective working relationships
