What You'll Do

Answer business questions with data

  • Build and run extracts against the firm's data stores to answer requests from the front office, and other units like Tax and Legal
  • Drive improvements to market share reporting and analytics
  • Support quarterly and annual tax and regulatory inquiries across multiple global jurisdictions
  • Respond to audit, litigation, and class-action data requests, often under short turnaround

Make the numbers trustworthy

  • Validate every extract before delivery - cross-foot detail against aggregates, reconcile against source systems, and investigate discrepancies rather than explaining them away
  • Document the business rules behind each report, including who made the decision and why

Reduce the recurring load

  • Identify patterns across incoming requests
  • Partner with engineering teams to translate those patterns into durable solutions: reporting dashboards, self-service views, scheduled reports
  • Write the specification: define the business logic, the edge cases, and the validation criteria that a tool needs to get right

What We're Looking For

Required

  • 5+ years in a data analysis, business intelligence, financial reporting, or analytics engineering role
  • Advanced SQL - you are comfortable with complex multi-table joins, aggregation across different grains, CTEs, and reasoning about query performance.
  • Python for data work - pandas, database connectivity, and building repeatable scripts rather than one-off notebooks
  • Experience working with financial data: trades, positions, pricing, or reference data
  • Demonstrated care with accuracy.
  • Clear written communication - you'll be explaining methodology to accountants, lawyers, and auditors who don't read SQL
  • Bachelor's degree in a quantitative or technical field
  • Experience specifying requirements for engineering teams, or building BI tooling (Tableau, Power BI, or similar)
  • Exposure to tax, VAT/GST, or regulatory reporting
