About Michael Ray

For more than 20 years, I have managed financial services and investment operations…

Experience

  1. Senior Manager of Operations

    Equity Trust Company

    Aug 2022 — Present · Westlake, OH, US

    As Senior Manager of Operations, I oversee three managers and their teams (50+ indirect reports) covering Account Services (all opening, closing, and maintenance accounts), Transfers (all incoming/outgoing transfers), and the BPAD team (manages distributions, estate resolutions, and divorce activity). Evaluate performance of 20+ staff and develop corrective action plans to reshape the organization into impactful teams to support clients. Hired more than 10 new employees over the course of two years. Reduce operational risk and improve efficiency by updating internal controls and dozens of outdated procedures across three teams; additionally, I created cheat sheets for the salesforce to aid in their processes.
