What’s the Role?

Bloomberg is seeking a highly motivated person to join the BVAL Securitized Products Evaluation team as a European MBS or CMBS specialist. This team is responsible for designing and supporting bond valuation models in the European mortgage- and asset-backed securities markets using Bloomberg's in-house analytics and database.

As you grow into the role, your feedback will be critical to ensure projects are on track, serving the needs of clients, and progressing to be the industry leader in the European MBS evaluated pricing sector.

This is an exciting opportunity for individuals with experience and understanding of mortgage- and asset-backed securities.
