Today our clients are under mounting pressure to do more with less, as demands to reduce operational risk and increase operational efficiency have never been greater. While firms acknowledge the need for enterprise-wide data consistency, ensuring its timeliness, quality, delivery, reliability and distribution remains a pervasive challenge.

The entire enterprise benefits from the consistency of Bloomberg's high-quality data when front, middle office and operations all work with the same information. Firms that commit to utilizing only highest-quality data can eliminate the data inconsistencies inherent to working with multiple vendors and lower their costs overall. A partnership with Bloomberg Enterprise Solutions allows just this, giving them strategic advantage.

You are the key to liaise between customer, Enterprise Solutions teams and other Bloomberg Teams in maintaining ownership of all client content interaction throughout the pre- and post-sale. You assess customer and application content needs, including feature sets, instrument universes and fields based on current and intended uses and resolve those against what is available via Bloomberg Enterprise solutions.

At times, we will need you to take a more technical approach in collaborating with the appropriate internal teams to obtain clarification on security and field behaviours and instrument availability. Where you see the opportunities, we want you to coordinate activities of internal and external business units to fill any content gaps identified through the assessment process or customer adoption.

3) On-going client interaction and adoption:

• Provide training to Client Application Development Teams in regards to Bloomberg Instrument/Field Symbology and product functionality
