Job Description

Data Operations Manager - Chile

The world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data.

Technology has revolutionised equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos, and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it’s in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered.

Our client's mission is to change this.

Our client's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal, and ESG data and analysis. Their clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business, and most importantly, save time.

Their fast-growing list of clients includes 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds, and Law Firms.
The Role
Our client is establishing a new Data Operations team in Santiago, Chile, to revolutionise their data approach. As a Data Operations Manager, you will be a pivotal part of this initiative. You'll oversee a specific product vertical and guide a team of skilled entry-level roles, dedicated to ensuring high-quality and efficient data processing, and be expected to help them constantly iterate and improve. To achieve that, you will be expected to work on the development and implementation of our client's growing data operations workflows.

Our client is currently hiring a Data Operations Manager for each of the following product verticals:

News: Providing fast, reliable news on all Leveraged Finance companies isn’t easy. We’ve developed our own tech infrastructure to find and publish any information clients might want to know.

This role reports to the Head of Data Operations and involves close collaboration with our Credit team in New York and London, who perform credit analysis on leveraged finance issuers.
