SalaryOur Team
Data quality is of strategic importance to our organization. As data underpins the Bloomberg product offerings, the quality of our data products directly correlates with our clients' ability to make decisions and realize value.
The Data Quality team sits centrally within Data, alongside our Business Intelligence and Process Engineering teams (collectively, 'Data Product Management'), and supports Data by enabling data product teams to appraise their Data Products from our clients' perspective, identify root cause of observations, and take specific action to effect positive change in order to meet their clients' requirements. By operating a client focused Data Quality strategy, we ensure data products are delivered to meet or exceed the expectations of the end-user.
Our team partners closely with different Data Product teams and Engineering counterparts, to champion solutions that meet the data needs of our client-facing products. Primary themes in this area include owning the continual refinement of the best practices and application of industry aligned Data Management principles, as well as the development of the tooling and measurement solutions necessary to report on the fitness-of-use of our data products.

- Collaborate closely with global DML counterparts, in particular Business Intelligence and Process Engineering, to ensure aligned consistency in approach, delivery and contribution to shared resources;
- Establish close partnership with Engineering counterparts on priorities and direction of infrastructure needs to support our long-term Data Quality vision.
You'll need to have a strong combination of:
- 3+ years* of formal people leadership experience, or strong informal leadership experience from leading large projects with multiple counterparts;
- Strong professional experience within the Data Quality domain, supported by industry certifications like DAMA CDMP, DCAM, Six Sigma;
- Exceptional stakeholder management skills, able to thrive in a relationship driven environment to establish strong credibility with counterparts across the organization;

- Ability to lead and oversee multiple projects in parallel, with proven project management and time leadership skills;
