London, UK, United Kingdom Bloomberg Full time
The Risk Implementation Team provides our clients outstanding service in scoping, deployment, and integration of our solutions within the framework of their existing businesses. Today, Risk Implementations handle multi-asset risk products, which include MARS Front Office Risk, Market Risk, Credit Risk, Counterparty Risk, Hedge accounting and Collateral management.
For Multi-Asset Risk System (MARS) and Portfolio Risk Analytics (PORT) products, we partner with Sales and Account Management throughout the sales process to guarantee the solution is a fit for our client's needs. We also work with the client, our Product and Engineering teams to ensure the client has an efficient and exceptional onboarding experience.

What's the role?
  • Working with Sales to analyse a client's workflow, gather client requirements, identify gaps, and propose the most efficient solution - this will include scoping the workflow, presenting it back to the client and communicating requirements to Product teams where we need product development
  • Project managing the implementation of any sale aligning with our standard procedures and working with our EMEA client base to customise our products to fulfil the client's requirements to exacting timelines
  • Onboarding of clients on the particular risk module from bringing positions into Bloomberg, helping clients to understand the risk analytics and generating risk reports
  • Defining procedures for the implementation of any new products
  • Ensuring our new clients are setup to extract the maximum benefit from the products
  • Working with Product teams on implementation-related new build to ensure we deliver in line with our commitments
  • Finding opportunities to expand the product franchise within the client once the implementation has completed

We'll trust you to:
  • Own each assigned complex and strategic engagement, acting as the primary day-to-day project management point person working across multiple internal groups and external vendors, driving tasks through to completion
  • Drive transparency and consistency through clear communication and production of engagement-specific documentation
  • Keep up to date with the latest market reforms and our latest product releases and continue to challenge yourself in finding out how our various offerings can resolve client needs
  • Have a strong understanding of all the asset classes that the various Bloomberg solutions can support and the markets that are in your region
  • Good understanding of financial modelling with regards to cross-asset financial instruments, including fixed income, equities, OTC and exotic derivatives
  • Training clients on use of the different risk products and Bloomberg pricers across different asset classes
  • Build a network internally to improve the knowledge resource at your disposal

You'll need to have:
  • Experience in Risk financial services or a Financial Technology organisation including Project Management experience
  • Experience implementing Risk and portfolio analytics solutions such as Value At Risk (VaR), Fundamental Review Trading Book (FRTB), Standard Initial Margin Model (SIMM), and counterparty risk (XVA)
  • Solid understanding in some or all Asset classes including cash bonds, mortgages and cash structure products. Derivatives experience is must across various Asset classes
  • Proven experience prioritising engagements, gathering requirements, and defining sophisticated workflows
  • Proven experience in both independent and collaborative working environments in a fast-moving business
  • Demonstrated history of solving complex problems with a keen eye for detail and a meticulous level of precision

We'd love to see:
  • Prior experience in Sales or Account Management in the Buy-Side or Sell-Side industry
  • Prior experience in portfolio analytics
  • Programming background to be able to handle API projects
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel / Power BI / Tableau skills / Python
  • Bachelors or Masters degree, CFA, FRM or a MSc in Financial Engineering is a plus
  • Knowledge of the collateral management process
