Companies are the backbone of the stock and bond markets.  Bloomberg Intelligence ("BI") conducts in-depth research on large and midsize companies to help stock and bond investors effectively evaluate those companies. We analyse the unique attributes of each business, how it competes against other companies in its industry and how the business strategies and successes translate into financial results. Our analysis also focuses on the industry looking at the changing landscape and how it will affect company performance. Our analysts also research the technology, regulation, litigation and economies that will shape the environment for these companies and the related industry impact.

BI research is a combination of written analysis accompanied by interactive charting and analytics created from company reported data as well as industry and government data. Analysts review, check and curate this data into comprehensive and logically arranged dashboards to support their own research and to provide Bloomberg Terminal users a platform to view and analyse the data as well.

What’s the role?

We are looking for a highly motivated and driven research analyst to join Bloomberg Intelligence’s growing Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) team. You will be responsible for the development of industry-leading ESG research, focusing on industry-specific issues as well as cross-sectoral themes.

Primary responsibilities are to author innovative research on ESG issues, themes, and trends affecting companies, industries and financial markets, and to identify, analyse, maintain and process ESG data of companies and industries worldwide. The individual will help build new analytical functionality and contribute to the design and development of new products, while interacting with customers and industry specialists, and networking within the world of ESG investing so as to promote the Bloomberg Intelligence ESG offering. Good communication skills are key attributes of the role as this person will regularly be collaborating on research with Bloomberg Intelligence colleagues, and will be communicating with Bloomberg terminal clients via phone calls, in-person meetings, and online chat.

You’ll need to have:

  • Solid experience in Environmental, Social and Governance research is essential
  • Strong understanding of existing and emerging ESG reporting frameworks
  • Ability to link performance on ESG issues to financial impacts on an industry and company basis
  • Degree in Accounting/Finance and experience working with Accounting/Financial Statements preferred or equivalent experience
