Operations Analyst

About Cedar Legacy

Cedar Legacy is a single-family office for one of the largest retail groups in the MENA region. The team is lean, fast-moving, and focused on investment decisions; as the office grows, it needs someone to own the operational side of the business so that focus can stay where it belongs.

The Role

This is the operational backbone of the office: the person who owns how things run behind the scenes so that the family office can focus on investment decisions. It's a broad mandate: part organizational infrastructure, part external relationship management, part making sure nothing falls through the cracks, and it's deliberately built to be shaped by whoever takes it on.

What You'll Own

• Investment operations: manage the execution and tracking of investment transactions across portfolios, ensuring transfers, subscriptions, redemptions, and capital calls are processed accurately and on time.
• Data maintenance and organizational structure: maintain and consolidate data across different portfolios, custodians, and spreadsheets, reconcile it, and organize it into a structured, well-maintained foldering system. Follow up with wealth owners and other colleagues to get the data required to keep everything current.
• Vendor and service-provider management: serve as the point of contact for administrators, auditors, custodians, and other external providers, managing day-to-day requests and following up on deliverables.
• Reporting support: prepare and maintain recurring portfolio and performance reports, and keep the underlying data current between reporting cycles.
• Investor and network relations: support the ongoing management of relationships with investors, co-investors, and the broader professional network, including coordinating meetings and following through on what each relationship needs to stay warm.
• AI automation: we will train you to use AI tools efficiently as part of the role, and the expectation is that you build on that training to automate a lot of our operations over time, reducing manual work as we go.

Who We're Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in an operations, coordination, or office management role; family office, financial services, or professional services background is a plus, not a requirement.
• Naturally organized, with a proven ability to manage systems and processes independently.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with the judgment to represent the office professionally with external partners.
• Discreet and trustworthy; this role regularly handles sensitive and confidential information.
• Naturally inclined to follow up with others on tasks.
• Comfortable taking ownership and working independently, while communicating status proactively.
• Fluent in English and Arabic.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation, based on experience (on-site in Beirut, Lebanon).
• Direct daily collaboration with the office's senior team; no layers of middle management.
• High trust and autonomy once ramped up.
