About the Opportunity:
We are seeking an experienced EDM Implementation Consultant to support the implementation of an Enterprise Data Management (EDM) solution within a large financial services organization.
The ideal candidate is not simply an EDM technologist. They should combine hands-on EDM implementation experience with deep reference data and capital markets expertise, along with an understanding of how reference data supports investment platforms such as Charles River Development (CRD). The consultant should be able to step into an active implementation, understand the business and technology requirements quickly, identify potential issues, and provide an informed point of view.
This individual should be comfortable challenging vendors on reference data requirements and implementation approaches, helping the team avoid preventable implementation errors, and taking ownership of the workstream where appropriate. The ability to hit the ground running with minimal ramp-up time is important.
Responsibilities:Support the implementation of an Enterprise Data Management (EDM) solution focused on security and reference data.
Provide strong expertise in reference data management and understand how reference data supports investment-management applications and processes.
Help define, validate, and challenge reference data requirements.
Work with business and technology stakeholders to understand how reference data should be managed and distributed across the investment technology environment.
Support the integration and distribution of trusted reference data to downstream investment platforms, including CRD.
Partner with CRD and other technology stakeholders as needed to ensure reference data requirements are properly addressed.
Challenge and push implementation vendors on reference data expectations, requirements, and proposed approaches.
Identify potential implementation issues and help the team avoid unnecessary or preventable errors.
Provide practical guidance based on prior EDM and investment-management implementations.
Apply capital markets knowledge to ensure reference data solutions appropriately support financial instruments and investment processes.
Take ownership of assigned areas and help lead the EDM workstream forward where appropriate.
Work as part of the client's internal delivery team; this is not a managed services engagement with the EDM platform vendor.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Finance, Business, Data Management, or a related field.
8+ years of experience in Enterprise Data Management, reference data, or related investment technology roles, with significant hands-on EDM implementation experience.
Strong Enterprise Data Management (EDM) implementation experience.
Strong reference data domain expertise.
Hands-on experience with Cadis EDM, Markit EDM, IHS Markit EDM, S&P Global EDM, or Opus EDM.
Strong capital markets / investment-management domain knowledge.
