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.

10 AI Recruitment Agencies in the UK You Should Know (2025 Job‑Seeker Guide)

Generative‑AI hype has translated into real hiring: Lightcast recorded +57 % year‑on‑year growth in UK adverts mentioning “machine learning”, “LLM” or “gen‑AI” during Q1 2025. Yet supply still lags. Roughly 18,000 core AI professionals work in the UK, but monthly live vacancies hover around 1,400–1,600. That mismatch makes specialist recruiters invaluable—opening stealth vacancies, advising on salary bands and fast‑tracking interview loops. But many tech agencies sprinkle “AI” on their website without an active desk. To save you time, we vetted 50 + consultancies and kept only those with: A registered UK head office (verified via Companies House). A named AI/Machine‑Learning or Data practice.

Whether you’re an aspiring AI engineer, a machine learning specialist, or a data-driven software developer, staying ahead of the curve means more than just brushing up on Python. You’ll need to master a new generation of frameworks, languages, and tools shaping the future of artificial intelligence. Welcome to the AI Jobs Skills Radar 2026—your definitive guide to the emerging AI tech stack that employers will be looking for in the next 12–24 months.

How to Find Hidden AI Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, IET & the Turing Society

Stop Scrolling Job Boards and Start Tapping the Real AI Market Every week a new headline announces millions of pounds flowing into artificial-intelligence research, defence initiatives, or health-tech pilots. Read the news and you could be forgiven for thinking that AI vacancies must be everywhere—just grab your laptop, open LinkedIn, and pick a role. Yet anyone who has hunted seriously for an AI job in the United Kingdom knows the truth is messier. A large percentage of worthwhile AI positions—especially specialist or senior posts—never appear on public boards. They emerge inside university–industry consortia, defence labs, NHS data-science teams, climate-tech start-ups, and venture studios. Most are filled through referral or conversation long before a recruiter drafts a formal advert. If you wait for a vacancy link, you are already at the back of the queue. The surest way to beat that dynamic is to embed yourself in the professional bodies and grassroots communities where the work is conceived. The UK has a dense network of such organisations: the Chartered Institute for IT (BCS); the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) with its Artificial Intelligence Technical Network; the Alan Turing Institute and its student-driven Turing Society; the Royal Statistical Society (RSS); the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and its Mechatronics, Informatics & Control Group; public-funding engines like UK Research and Innovation (UKRI); and an ecosystem of Slack channels and Meetup groups that trade genuine, timely intel. This article is a practical, step-by-step guide to using those networks. You will learn: Why professional bodies matter more than algorithmic job boards Exactly which special-interest groups (SIGs) and technical networks to join How to turn CPD events into informal interviews How to monitor grant databases so you hear about posts months before they exist Concrete scripts, portfolio tactics, and outreach rhythms that convert visibility into offers Follow the playbook and you move from passive applicant to insider—the colleague who hears about a role before it is written down.
