Job Description:
Our client, a global, multi-billion dollar AUM, multi-strategy hedge fund, is looking to hire a newly created 'Market Data Specialist' to sit within their global Data team.
Working as part of a lean team of leading professionals in the buy-side data space, you will report directly to the Global Head of Data. You will collaborate with different functions worldwide to ensure efficient management and improvement of internal data infrastructure, data contract frameworks, and relationships with external stakeholders such as Bloomberg, FactSet, and Refinitiv.
The role combines commercial and hands-on data and vendor management responsibilities. You will work with and manage market data vendors, oversee all relevant contracts (licensing, renewals, usage analysis), and handle onboarding of new partners. Additionally, you will play a key role in major projects aimed at enhancing internal data usage, spend management, procurement lifecycle, and integration of new tools for the team.
This is an opportunity to join a collaborative team and make a significant impact. Candidates should ideally have 2-5 years of experience as an MDM, Market Data Analyst, or Vendor Management Analyst at a buy-side firm, bank, or major data vendor. Exceptional juniors seeking to progress are also considered. Candidates must be comfortable working in a lean team and taking a hands-on approach. A strong academic background is required.
The firm is committed to offering the successful candidate a competitive salary with potential for significant bonuses and industry-leading benefits.
