What is Bloomberg Enterprise Data?

Bloomberg's Enterprise Data department develops data offerings that are considered best in class by the capital markets community. Across real time market data, reference data, historical pricing data, and unique analytics we offer:

  •   The most comprehensive and highest quality content in the industry

  •   These critical datasets serve as the primary source of information across the front, middle, and back office at the most respected capital markets firms across the globe

What's the Role?

Building and maintaining a strong partner ecosystem is crucial to our success. Capital markets firms use vendor software solutions across the front, middle, and back office. Ensuring that these software solutions are nourished by Bloomberg’s wealth of content offer mutual customers a competitive advantage while oftentimes reducing their total cost of ownership. 

As the Team Lead for the 3rd Party Business Strategy team, you will lead a global team of Business Development analysts and work with senior managers to set the strategy for how we best seek and onboard new vendor partners, grow strategic relationships with existing partners, and work with Sales and Product Development teams to grow revenue through partner channels.

You will use an ambitious spirit and inquisitive attitude to find opportunities but know that hard work, hands-on engagement, and attention to detail is what brings solutions to market and differentiates us versus our competitors.

We’ll trust you to:

  •   Lead a highly strategic global team
  •   Set strategies and achievements to supervise progress on those strategies
  •   Collaboratively engage with senior managers to set strategies, communicate progress, promote wins, and thoughtfully learn from and adjust when failures occur
  •   Lead negotiations with strategic partner opportunities
  •   Take calculated risks
  •   Serve as Industry and Product authority of our partner solutions
  •   Engage with Product Development, Sales, Customers, and Vendor partners to ensure solutions meet customer needs and are positioned strategically
  •   Expertly make recommendations to customers and partners
  •   Build positive relationships with our vendor partners through knowledge sharing, insights, and trustworthiness
  •   Influence internal and external partners
  •   Balance hands on work with a desire to keep up with market trends

You’ll need to have:

  •   Experience leading and influencing a range of stakeholders 
  •   Comfort engaging with senior/executive partners and influencing their decisions
  •   Experience with the technology that drives capital market firms
  •   Experience with the data required to facilitate decision making across the Front, Middle, and Back office
  •   Strong understanding of capital markets, banking, asset management, risk, and/or the trade lifecycle
  •   Experience handling sophisticated tri-party relationships
  •   Outstanding communication and influencing skills that will drive adoption of our offerings
  •   Ambitious mentality, revenue-focus, and comfort working in a non-hierarchical, large global organization
  •   Passion for consistent learning
  •   Ability to travel

We’d love to see:

  •   Sophisticated Technical or Management degrees
  •   Strong network of industry influencers
