  • Major Market Data Vendors (e.g. Bloomberg, LSEG, S&P)
• Collaborate with Sales, Client Success, and Operations to ensure a seamless pre- and post-sales client experience.
• Provide insight into evolving client needs for risk, pricing, valuation, and regulatory compliance—particularly in OTC derivatives.
• Maintain strong knowledge of industry trends, data standards, valuation methodologies, and financial regulations across geographies.
• Help inform product development by relaying client feedback and market insights to Product teams.
• Support the go-to-market for the strategic Cloud-based ‘Analytics as a Service’ offering by providing deep commercial and technical context.
• Engage confidently with quantitative clients—possessing a working understanding of modelling techniques and data applications in real-world trading and risk settings.
• Represent Parameta Solutions at industry events, client forums, and strategic meetings with partners and vendors.
