You’ll help institutions stop overpaying for market data.

If you’ve worked around market data long enough, you’ll know this:

contracts are complex, pricing is opaque, and few people truly understand what they’re paying for.

Here, you’ll sit at the centre of that problem.

You’ll get:

• Exposure to real market data contracts across exchanges and vendors
• Training that moves you from data analysis into client-facing advisory
• A platform to build your name in the market — including industry panels and events

You won’t just clean spreadsheets. You’ll turn messy commercial data into insights that influence negotiations worth millions.

And you’ll learn how benchmarking really works, regression models, triangulation techniques, methodology design, not just surface-level reporting.

First, you’ll complete structured training in data cleaning and benchmarking methodology. Then you’ll start delivering work that matters.

You’ll:

• Standardise and clean large, inconsistent market data files
• Apply benchmarking methodologies across different providers and products
• Analyse pricing trends and contract structures
• Deliver benchmarking results and explain the “why” behind the numbers
• Review complex contract clauses and identify key differences

Over time, you’ll move into a client-facing capacity, presenting findings, answering questions, and building relationships with senior stakeholders in financial institutions.

• 2–5 years’ experience in market data, vendor management, finance or data analysis
• Strong Excel capability, you’re comfortable manipulating datasets and building formula-driven analysis
• A degree in Finance, Economics, Statistics or similar
• The confidence to explain numbers clearly to non-technical stakeholders

• Worked for a market data vendor or within a vendor management team
• Used basic Python
• Seen regulatory frameworks like MiFID II in practice
• Had exposure to client-facing environments

If you’re working in market data and want to move closer to the commercial engine — where contracts, benchmarking and negotiation strategy happen — this is worth a conversation.

Apply and we’ll share the full brief confidentially.
