• Deep knowledge of metals markets and the factors influencing pricing, supply, demand, trade flows and investment decisions.
• Strong understanding of relevant client workflows, which may include trading, analyst research, portfolio management, hedging, risk management, corporate finance, strategy or market analysis.
• A commercial mindset and demonstrated ability to translate market expertise into client engagement and business opportunities.
• Strong consultative skills with the ability to uncover client needs, handle objections and influence senior stakeholders.
• Excellent presentation and communication skills, with the ability to make complex market concepts, analytics and workflows accessible to audiences with different levels of expertise.
• Strong business judgment and the ability to identify market trends and opportunities that can tangibly contribute to Bloomberg's commercial success.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across Sales, Product, Data and Research teams and influence outcomes in a highly collaborative environment.
