Is this a front office job?

Hi, I've been a long time lurker, and in fact I've registered for quite some time as well, just that I never had a particular reason to post.

Anyway from the descriptions can anyone tell me if this opening is for front office or otherwise?

The first few lines sounds like front office, but I can't help but feel as if it's middle office. Any help?

 

Yeah it's CIMB. I'm tempted to apply, but not entirely sure what the job entails. Currently with one of the big4 DD team, which I could leverage into PE in a few years.
