Description & Requirements

Bloomberg offers an innovative perspective on the traditional world of indexing, providing independent and unbiased indices that are broadly available. With expertise in capital markets, technology, data, pricing, analytics, distribution and research, our indices provide the global investment community with comprehensive solutions to fulfil their benchmarking needs across Fixed Income, Equity, Commodity, Cross-Asset, Crypto, Index-Linked and ESG. We also provide an array of services to clients interested in customized index solutions and investable index products. These are designed to offer access to systematic strategies (beta, “smart” beta, and alpha), index administration and calculation agent services.

What’s the Role?

In this role you will join a highly motivated and successful Multi-Asset Index team that sits within our Enterprise Data Product Group. The Multi-Asset Index Product Manager is responsible for the strategic roadmap and implementation of our multi-asset strategy indices, with a focus on insurance (fixed indexed annuities and indexed life), bank structuring and QIS desks, and structured products.

You will have ownership of managing the ecosystem of our indices focused on the maintenance and delivery of indices across the broad Bloomberg. You will work to shape our index story across diverse asset classes and work with the Bloomberg Index team to meet our clients needs in the development, launch and maintenance of Bloomberg Indices. You will be expected to regularly meet with clients and work closely with our Sales team in nurturing client relationships and continually advocating new ideas to Bloomberg’s clients.

Regarding domain expertise, you’ll have a deep knowledge of the institutional asset management industry, understand index trends, regulation and understand what our customers need. You will most probably have acquired this knowledge whilst working on product development for new investment vehicles in past roles with index structuring desks, asset managers or index providers.

You will run this segment as a business, not just a product line: setting priorities, driving revenue and client adoption, and deciding where to invest. You will influence the product vision and then execute on that vision. This may include product design, exploring strategic partnerships, and always delivering effective internal and external communication.

We’ll trust you to:

• Contribute meaningfully to the creation of new index ideas and guiding the business’ approach to new product development
• Communicate the product vision within Bloomberg and build consensus among senior leadership team
• Work across Bloomberg to collaborate on new product design across our research teams, engineering and index production
• Design complex index methodologies, build financial models to back-test and develop strategy indices
• Assess clients portfolio needs and translate them into index-based solutions

You’ll need to have:

• Experience in the asset management, structuring, or index product space directly related to turning ideas into indices and indices into products.
• A good knowledge of financial markets, securities and derivatives
• Excellent analytical capabilities working with large data sets, to aid in solving non-routine problems in a timely fashion with keen attention to detail
• A broad understanding of the index industry including key products, business dynamics, economic drivers, and critical connectivity partners across key market sub-segments
• Strong marketing skills with a point of view on product positioning and product adoption strategy
• Ability to develop thorough, integrated, commercially sound business plans
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills, capable of building enthusiastic support for new business ideas
• Deep understanding of regulations on financial indices and day-to-day governance determinations on index events

Salary Range = 140,000-295,000 USD Annual+ Benefits + Bonus

We offer one of the most comprehensive and generous benefits plans available and offer a range of total rewards that may include merit increases, incentive compensation (exempt roles only), paid holidays, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability benefits, 401(k) +match, life insurance, and various wellness programs, among others.
