Job Description:

Our client, a global, multi-billion dollar AUM, multi-strategy hedge fund, is looking to make a newly created 'Market Data Specialist' hire 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 globally to ensure that internal data infrastructure, data contract frameworks, and relationships with external stakeholders (such as Bloomberg, FactSet, Refinitiv) are managed efficiently.

The role combines commercial and hands-on data and vendor management responsibilities. The hire will manage market data vendors, relevant contracts (licensing, renewals, usage analysis), and onboarding of new partners. You will also play a key role in projects to improve internal data usage, spend management, procurement lifecycle, and integration of new tools.

This is an opportunity to join a collaborative team and make a significant impact. Candidates should have 2-5 years of experience as an MDM / Market Data Analyst / Vendor Management Analyst at a buy-side firm, bank, or major data vendor, or be an exceptional junior looking to step up. Candidates must be willing to work in a lean team and take a hands-on approach. A strong academic profile is preferred.

The client is committed to offering a competitive salary and a leading benefits package, with bonuses for top performers.
