Description & Requirements

Bloomberg runs on data. Bloomberg Intelligence "BI" takes that data and creates insight which drives financial markets. Our team of experts generates valuable written analysis, interactive charting, and functions which are published on the Bloomberg Terminal. Our work gives trading and investment professionals foresight into where crucial industries stand today and where they may be heading next.

What's in it for you:

You would be part of this fast-growing team and responsible for supporting BI Equity Strategists: generating insights, constructing data analysis and conducting investment research. The research will require a combination of fundamental, technical and quantitative analysis, and include aggregation and periodic assessments of earnings trends, market and sector performance, and relative value. The analysis will be based on Bloomberg data sets and the group's proprietary models. Collaboration with strategy, industry, government and litigation teams is a key element of this role. BI Analysts and Strategists arm Bloomberg users with the data and insights necessary to make market assessments.

We'll trust you to:

- Actively contribute to the U.S. Equity Strategy Team's daily research activities (i.e. data, written research, idea generation)

- Pull, clean, and organize large sets of financial data using Python and Excel, ensuring accuracy and consistency despite potential imperfections in the raw data

- Manage and model large data sets, including aggregation and calculation of fundamental series for industries, sectors and indices

- Continuously assess the quality of data, identifying potential errors and inconsistencies; proactively determine whether the data makes sense and flagging/correcting issues as needed

- Develop and maintain relationships with internal departments throughout Bloomberg as well as external users

-Synthesize the results of your data analysis and develop concise narratives that communicate the story behind the data

- Work with other data and core business groups to help develop and improve content and functionality across the terminal

- Interact with clients via our online messaging systems

- Participate in department-wide special projects

You need to have:

- Graduated with a Bachelor's degree; a degree in a STEM field with a heavy emphasis on computer programming preferred

- Proficiency in Python (Pandas, NumPy) and Excel for handling large datasets, cleaning data, and performing complex analyses

- The ability to spot anomalies in financial data, think critically about what the data is telling you and identify when something doesn't align or make sense

- At least two years of research experience in either Equity Strategy or Economics, with genuine interest in developing a career in strategy research

- Excellent written communication and presentation skills, track record of collaboration with a team

- An understanding of advanced concepts, practices and procedures of finance/accounting with experience interpreting financial statements and performing quantitative financial analysis

- Strong familiarity with equity market indices and econometric data sets

- High attention to detail and demonstrable research and analytical skills

- Strong organizational skills and capable of handling multiple projects

- An ability to meet deadlines, logically tackle problems and set priorities
