Interview with Brett Le Cheminant
Global Head – Cleared Derivatives Control
Raleigh, USA
What is your role?
Brett Le Cheminant: I have two roles. For one, I am Global Head for Cleared Derivatives Control. This means I am responsible for the front to back processing of Cleared Derivatives globally, supporting the Prime Derivatives Services business. I am also the Head of Operations for Raleigh, with regional oversight responsibilities, and a member of the Raleigh Local Management Committee. Having two roles means that I have very varied responsibilities – it keeps things interesting.
What surprised you most about the job?
Brett Le Cheminant: The breadth of responsibilities continues to surprise me. While I already have a broad remit, my responsibilities span multiple disciplines: from contract negotiation, crisis management, vendor management and accounting, to regulatory responsibilities. This is in addition to the standard process, people, cost and project management that is part of most roles.
What is it like working for Credit Suisse from home?
Brett Le Cheminant: Since I started at Credit Suisse in 2003, I have worked in London, Singapore, India and America, where I'm now working from home. I miss the people. Credit Suisse has a great team culture. However, the technology and support to enable us to work from home has been flawless. Credit Suisse has always had the infrastructure for remote working and supported flexible working arrangements. But the ability to scale this up to support everyone has been truly impressive.
