Description & Requirements

Bloomberg is a global leader in business and financial information, news and insight, and we use innovative technology to deliver trusted data and bring transparency to the financial markets. Our customers around the globe rely on us for the information and tools they need to make critical investment decisions and remain connected across all sides of the financial community. And, to ensure the best experience for our 26,000+ employees across more than 150 locations around the world, we provide the spaces and systems that allow our teams to work together with agility, productivity and collaboration, no matter where they are.

The Bloomberg Financial Solutions department is at the forefront of ensuring success for our customers and employees alike. Our team comprises several key pillars: sales, service, operations, culture and brand. As a department, we are united by a common goal: We create meaningful relationships with clients by understanding their needs and delivering exceptional end-to-end support from sales and implementation, through their ongoing relationship with Bloomberg.

Our Team
We're Bloomberg. We sit at the heart of the financial markets, from the largest sell-side institutions right through to the two person hedge fund - we're an integral part of the financial markets workflow in every corner of the world. We provide our users with up to the millisecond market moves and analytics as well as connecting them with their counterparts and the wider community of 350,000 Bloomberg Terminal subscribers.

Our Sales teams are industry renowned for their subject matter expertise and platinum service levels. You'll have industry renowned training, not just when you join us, but continually throughout your career here. Just like we invest in our products, we invest in our people. It gives us the edge.

Bloomberg Enterprise Data - fast-paced, innovative, and expanding. We work closely with our clients to understand their unique businesses and their evolving data and technology needs. With an extensive range of datasets covering all asset types, multiple delivery technologies, and flexible scheduling options, our clients can access exactly the data they need, when they need it, and in the format they prefer. Quite simply, without us, they can't operate.

What's the Role?
We are looking for a Sales Specialist to join our team, responsible for driving revenue across Bloomberg's Enterprise Data product suite, with a specific focus on Quantitative Research and Data Science workflows.
Quantitative investing is undergoing a rapid transformation. Once the domain of the most sophisticated hedge funds, data science and quant techniques are now being adopted at scale by major asset managers and traditional firms across both the buy side and sell side. This new wave of innovation - powered by greater data availability, increased computing capacity, and advanced techniques - is reshaping the investment landscape and introducing fresh challenges and opportunities.
This role offers a unique opportunity to work with a dynamic, collaborative team, positioning Bloomberg's market-leading content and technology at the heart of modern research and quant strategies. You'll be at the intersection of financial innovation and data-driven investing.

We'll Trust You To:

  • Link market trends and client workflows to clearly articulate the value of Bloomberg's Enterprise and Research data products
  • Serve as a consultative partner to quantitative researchers, data scientists, and portfolio managers, helping them discover and integrate Bloomberg data into alpha-generating workflows
  • Partner with internal product and engineering teams to represent client feedback and influence product development
  • Lead sales and retention efforts for Bloomberg's Research and Data Science dataset offerings
  • Build and execute sales strategies in collaboration with enterprise sales, account management, and solutions teams
  • Validate client workflows and coordinate the appropriate technical and sales resources
  • Help educate internal colleagues on how to identify and engage Quant-related sales opportunities
  • Collaborate across business units to deliver value-added solutions tailored to client needs
  • Contribute innovative ideas that anticipate client challenges and drive strategic value
  • Maintain frequent client and prospect interaction through meetings, workshops, and on-site visits
  • Participate actively in cross-functional projects that support departmental and firm-wide initiatives
  • Seek out opportunities to mentor, contribute to training efforts, lead sales campaigns, or provide feedback for product enhancements


We'll Need You to Have:

  • A minimum of 5 years' experience in financial services, ideally within a data, technology, or commercial role
  • Proven consultative sales skills, including market research, lead generation, business development, and deal closing
  • The ability to communicate complex technical solutions clearly and persuasively to a variety of audiences
  • Strong presentation, communication, and training skills in English
  • A deep understanding of client business models and data needs across research, quant, and trading functions
  • A track record of managing and developing relationships at a senior level, including with CxO stakeholders
  • Demonstrable knowledge of quantitative finance, research workflows, and the data science ecosystem
  • Familiarity with alpha modeling, signal construction, portfolio analytics, and modern investment strategies
  • Exposure to modern programming languages (e.g. Python, R) and environments like Jupyter Notebooks
  • A solution-oriented mindset and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving environment
  • A strong desire to learn, adapt, and continuously grow both commercially and technically
  • Based in London, with a willingness to travel as needed


We'd Love to See:

  • Passion for innovation and building the future of Enterprise Solutions at Bloomberg
  • Understanding of how machine learning and AI are being applied in financial markets
  • Experience working with Research data or Alternative data sets
  • Fluency in one or more European languages (especially French, Italian, or German)
  • Coming from the Client Side? Even Better.


If you've worked with Bloomberg data or tools as a quant, data scientist, or portfolio manager - we'd love to hear from you. Your insight into how this data is used in practice is exactly what we value in this role.
