Bloomberg runs on data, and data drives the market. Our Global Data team acquires and supplies this data to our clients. Teams work collaboratively to collect, analyse, process and publish the data which is the backbone of our iconic Bloomberg Terminal - that ultimately feeds and moves global financial markets.
The Role:
As a Bloomberg Global Data Steward, you will play a critical role in extracting and rationalising company financial metadata into Bloomberg taxonomies in accordance with established methodologies, supporting taxonomy policy implementation and delivering on key business objectives in this regard.
In addition to this, you will be responsible for governance of critical data elements and their associated meta-data, as well as setting, maintaining and optimising operational procedures governing this metadata. This input will include standards, guidelines and policies for critical data elements (fields), including meta-data and related reference data. You will also be responsible for supporting a global taxonomy team on key initiatives and identifying trends in financial reporting globally. You will be expected to identify, implement and socialise improvements in operational procedures and workflows globally, using your subject matter expertise to support the team.
Data Stewards also provide support for internal and external clients that consume the data as a result you will be required to collaborate with multiple business partners, making the role diverse and providing an opportunity for continuous learning.

- Collaborate with multiple internal partners (business, engineering, sales, tech-ops) and project owners to establish consensus on best practices; and
- Utilise subject-matter-expertise to set and maintain methodologies and identify process and product improvements
