Global fund and corporate trust administrator serving asset managers and family offices
Trident Trust operates a trust and fund administration business across six continents, relying on a traditional Microsoft-centric stack (Office 365, SharePoint, Viewpoint) paired with Bloomberg Terminal and QuickBooks. Hiring is heavily skewed toward finance and legal roles—28 and 17 positions respectively—with almost no engineering capacity, which aligns with their project focus on compliance remediation, data quality fixes in legacy systems, and document lifecycle improvements rather than product innovation.
Founded in 1978, Trident Trust provides corporate, trust, and fund administration services to financial institutions, asset managers, family offices, and professional advisors across Africa, the Americas, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, and the Middle East. The firm employs over 1,100 staff and specializes in corporate services, fund services, wealth structuring, and marine and aircraft administration. Operations center on tight regulatory deadlines, statutory filing compliance, audit closure, and anti-money laundering procedures—capabilities delivered through a mix of commercial platforms (Viewpoint, Bloomberg, Microsoft 365) and internal process discipline.
Primary tools include Microsoft Office 365, Viewpoint, SharePoint, QuickBooks, Bloomberg Terminal, Apache Spark, and Windows Virtual Desktop. The stack is enterprise-oriented and compliance-focused rather than custom-built.
Active hiring spans Malta, Philippines, Mauritius, Jersey, United States, Cyprus, Panama, India, British Virgin Islands, and Cayman Islands—reflecting global fund administration operations.
Current projects include closed-end fund setup and closing, Viewpoint data remediation, compliance remediation, document lifecycle management, IT service continuity, and capital call processing.
