Data Support Analyst (Japanese Speaker), Tokyo

Bloomberg runs on data. Our products are fueled by powerful information. We combine data and context to paint the whole picture for our clients, around the clock - from around the world. In Data, we are responsible for delivering this data, news and analytics through innovative technology - quickly and accurately. We apply problem-solving skills to identify innovative workflow efficiencies, and we implement technology solutions to enhance our systems, products and processes - all while providing exceptional customer support to our clients.

Our Team:

The Data Support Team is the frontline customer service provider for Bloomberg's Data clients. We deliver knowledgeable and dedicated service to our customers addressing data related inquiries.

The team is structured into domain based teams across three asset classes with Equity, Fixed Income and Multi Asset teams across the globe with generalists across each group. These teams are directly aligned to domain based ADSK groups and partners among Data’s departments: Companies, Securities, Managed Investment and Benchmarks, Content Acquisition, and the Data Management Lab teams.
