• Influence the direction of Bloomberg products through thought leadership, contribution on innovative ideas, and establishing relationships between Bloomberg's decisions makers and our clients

• Participate actively in new projects that drive departmental and firm-wide initiatives and goals
• Seek out additional ways to make an impact, such as mentoring, involvement in training, running campaigns, and active involvement in product enhancement

You'll need to have:

• Good knowledge of bank treasury and corporate workflows will be an advantage
• A demonstrated track record of thinking strategically and developing business in changing market conditions
• 10+ years experience in cultivating relationships with senior and C-level clients, regulators and governments
• Understanding of client operating models, player types, markets and workflows which can be used to identify problems and build solutions for the client to drive commercial success
• The ability to convey complex ideas and solutions in a simple and concise way to audiences both large and small
• Ability to travel to Eastern Europe and Central Asia as required to provide clients with a premier service

We'd love to see:

• Experience in client engagement within Eastern European and CIS Markets
