Responsibilities

  • Own and develop high-quality relationships with fund managers, investors, and industry participants to secure proprietary private markets data and strengthen market engagement.
  • Take direct ownership of data quality, coverage growth, and proprietary data contribution, ensuring outputs are accurate, complete, and commercially valuable.
  • Drive disciplined execution across the end-to-end data lifecycle, from market outreach and acquisition through to validation, maintenance, and ongoing enhancement.
  • Use strong judgment and domain understanding to identify high-value data opportunities, coverage gaps, and areas for market expansion.
  • Apply AI-enabled tools and more efficient ways of working to improve outreach, research, data validation, workflow quality, and scale.
  • Serve as a credible point of contact for clients and internal stakeholders, bringing market knowledge, analytical thinking, and confidence in private markets data.
  • Contribute to revenue-generating and strategic initiatives by delivering high-quality analysis, proprietary insights, and reliable execution.

  • Lead by example as a high-performing individual contributor who brings pace, precision, collaboration, and a continuous improvement mindset.

Requirements

  • Proven ability to take ownership of complex workstreams and deliver high-quality outcomes with limited supervision.
  • Strong relationship-building skills, with confidence engaging fund managers, investors, clients, and senior market stakeholders.
  • Commercially curious and analytically sharp, with the ability to understand what data matters, why it matters, and how it supports client and business priorities.
  • Highly organised and execution-focused, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, maintain momentum, and deliver consistently at pace.
  • Strong judgment when working with incomplete, fragmented, or difficult-to-source information.
  • Comfortable using AI, automation, or workflow improvements to increase efficiency, improve quality, and support scale.
  • Proactive and accountable, with a track record of identifying opportunities, solving problems, and pushing work forward without waiting for direction.
  • Collaborative and adaptable, with the ability to work effectively across regions, functions, and stakeholder groups.
