Description & Requirements

The Application Specialist team within Analytics serves as the financial markets and workflow experts at Bloomberg. On any given day as an application specialist, you will be working with our clients to uncover inefficiencies, streamline processes, and maximise the value of our platform and data. You'll mentor and guide analytics colleagues, sharing your market knowledge and domain expertise to support their professional growth, while also partnering across aligned departments to craft thematic campaigns around market trends and promote our latest innovations. You'll proactively work to influence the evolution of our products through insightful feedback and targeted engagements.

By championing the Bloomberg Professional Service, including through market events and printed material, you become the face of our company.

The EMEA Application Specialist on Mortgages and Structured Finance is a role that helps Bloomberg deliver exceptional client service and develop exceptional people for our Sales force. Day to day it will see you:

• Collaborating with clients to maximise the value our mortgages and structured finance solutions can bring to their workflow.
• Educating stakeholders around product development, including developing and presenting training.
• Designing strategy for new Mortgage & Structured Finance product launches and Private Credit Markets.
• Identifying key trends within the market and working with analytics and across departments to help them demonstrate and understand the benefit that Bloomberg tools can bring.
• Leverage your market insight and domain expertise to mentor and inspire colleagues.

We will trust you to:

• Utilize your strong market experience, detailed knowledge of industry trends and demonstrated technical skills to assist in mentoring, guiding and training analytics colleagues.
• Act in an advisory capacity to our clients around the challenges that they face and how they could use our products and technology to solve them, delivering meaningful engagements that could assist in generating revenue for our terminal business and suite of enterprise solutions.
• Influence the direction of Bloomberg product development through thought leadership, contribution on innovative ideas, and establishing relationships between Bloomberg's decision makers and our clients.
• Establish your own roadmap of initiatives that align with analytics, product and sales goals. Maintain check-in points, and self-report successes and challenges on these strategies.
• Participate actively in new projects that drive departmental and firm-wide initiatives.
• Develop an in-depth understanding of the competitor landscape and how this affects both internal and external stakeholders.
• Seek out ways to make an impact, through mentoring, training, and frequent community engagements.

You'll need to have:

• Extensive experience in Mortgages (RMBS, ABS, CMBS & CLOs) and the broader aspects of Structured Finance.
• A good understanding of credit markets, including Private Credit and CDS.
• Practical experience using the Bloomberg terminal, ideally having used our Fixed Income analysis tools, and potentially competitor products.
• A passion for helping others learn and be able to convey complex ideas and solutions in a simple and concise way to audiences both large and small.
• The business insight required to use your knowledge & experience to make good judgement and quick decisions to tangibly impact the commercial success of our business.
• A reciprocal mind-set, along with ability to operate within both departmental and company-wide initiatives, in a non-hierarchical structure without corporate titles.
• A willingness to travel across EMEA as required to provide clients with a premier service.
• Outstanding presentation, training and communication skills.

We'd love to see:

• Fluency in a second European language would be an advantage.
• An entrepreneurial & commercial mind set with the ability to identify and develop opportunities for other groups within the company and build strong networks.
• Experience of working cross functionally with several departments in a large financial institution.
