  • Analyse defects and production-like issues, trace configuration, reference-data, position, and transaction-flow root causes, coordinate remediation with functional and technical teams, and validate fixes through structured retesting.
  • Support configuration promotion, release preparation, migration and cutover activities, go-live readiness, hypercare, and the creation of operational runbooks and support documentation.
  • Facilitate workshops with securities operations, product owners, portfolio and investment teams, business analysts, architects, developers, testers, finance, and control functions to clarify requirements and resolve design decisions.
  • Coordinate closely with Temenos, implementation partners, custodians, market-data providers, and internal delivery teams, managing configuration dependencies and ensuring consistency across environments and related workstreams.
  • Contribute to configuration governance, documentation standards, knowledge transfer, and capability building so that securities solutions remain maintainable after implementation.

YOUR CAPCO FIT

  • At least 7 years of experience in banking technology, securities operations, wealth management, or core banking transformation, including substantial hands-on responsibility for configuration and implementation activities.
  • At least 4 years of practical experience with Temenos, ideally including Temenos Securities and Temenos Core / Transact, with participation in at least two implementation, upgrade, or major transformation programmes.
  • Strong functional knowledge of the securities lifecycle, including trade processing, settlement, positions, custody, and asset servicing, preferably in private-banking, wealth-management, or securities-services environments.
  • Proven ability to configure and troubleshoot Temenos Securities products and parameters across transaction processing, settlement, positions, custody, fees and commissions, exceptions, and asset-servicing processes.
  • Strong understanding of multi-asset securities processing, corporate actions, income events, settlement and custody concepts, SWIFT and ISO 20022 messaging, static and reference data, and straight-through processing.

  • Structured problem-solving skills and the ability to translate complex securities requirements into practical, testable, and maintainable Temenos configurations.
  • Comfortable working in agile or hybrid delivery environments, taking ownership of deliverables from requirements and design through testing, release, and post-go-live stabilization.
  • Professional fluency in English (C1 level or equivalent), including the ability to produce clear functional and technical documentation.

About this role

Capco is seeking a Temenos Configuration Specialist to lead the securities configuration workstream on a major transformation programme for a Swiss financial institution. This is a hands-on role where you'll configure Temenos Securities and Core/Transact to support complex front-to-back trade processing, settlement, position management, and asset servicing across multiple asset classes. You'll translate business requirements into functional designs and parameter specifications, perform fit-gap analyses, and work across securities operations, business analysis, architecture, and technology teams to ensure configuration-first solutions that align with target architecture and Temenos standards.

The role demands deep expertise in both Temenos and securities operations. You'll need at least seven years in banking technology or core banking transformation, with at least four years of hands-on Temenos experience across at least two major programmes. Strong functional knowledge of the securities lifecycle—trade processing, settlement, custody, corporate actions, and asset servicing—is essential, along with familiarity with SWIFT, ISO 20022, and straight-through processing. You should be comfortable configuring transaction rules, settlement instructions, fees, exceptions, and position settings, and able to troubleshoot issues by tracing root causes through configuration, reference data, and transaction flows.

Beyond technical depth, you'll collaborate extensively across stakeholders—from securities operations and product owners to architects, developers, custodians, and market-data providers. You'll define test scenarios, support system integration and user acceptance testing, manage configuration promotion and cutover activities, and contribute to documentation and knowledge transfer. This is a full-time, in-office role based in Zurich or Friesland, suited to someone who thrives in complex, multi-stakeholder delivery environments and can balance detailed configuration work with broader programme governance and capability building.
