Our focus is to deliver Economics data that is accurate, timely, complete, transparent, and ready to use.

The Economics Data team is looking for a Senior Data Management Professional – Data Quality to define and drive the quality strategy for Economics data products. This role is focused on setting quality standards, defining fit‑for‑purpose metrics, strengthening controls, improving issue management, and ensuring data quality is measured transparently across tools, processes, and datasets.

You will work closely with Data, Engineering, Product, Vendors, and Domain teams to ensure Economics datasets meet client expectations, support commercial priorities, and are governed through clear controls, ownership, and measurable outcomes.

We'll trust you to:

• Define and own the data quality vision, strategy, and roadmap for Economics datasets.
• Set fit‑for‑purpose quality metrics, SLAs, targets, and standards aligned to client, product, commercial, and regulatory needs.
• Design data quality controls across completeness, accuracy, timeliness, consistency, schema change, anomaly detection, and data integrity.
• Use data profiling, root‑cause analysis, and trend analysis to identify quality risks and drive sustainable remediation.
• Own the data quality issue management framework, including logging, triage, prioritization, accountability, remediation tracking, and closure.
• Partner with Engineering to translate quality needs into pipeline controls, monitoring, tooling, observability, and automation requirements.
• Represent Economics Data in lifecycle governance, policy implementation, and quality framework discussions.
• Define guardrails for automated or AI‑assisted quality workflows, including imputation, validation, exception handling, and downstream flagging.
• Improve transparency of tools, processes, and data health through dashboards, reporting, and regular communication to senior partners.
• Work with Vendors, Product, Engineering, and Data teams to resolve quality issues at source and prevent recurrence.
• Influence data governance, metadata, lineage, data modelling, and lifecycle management practices across Economics datasets.
• Promote a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, automation, and client‑focused quality.

You’ll need to have:

• A bachelor’s degree or above in Economics, Statistics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Quantitative Finance, or equivalent experience.
• 4+ years of experience in data management, data quality, data operations, data governance, or data product ownership.
• Solid experience defining quality metrics, SLAs, controls, KPIs, issue management processes, and remediation frameworks.
• Experience working across the full data lifecycle, including ingestion, normalization, enrichment, modelling, quality control, distribution, and monitoring.
• Strong analytical skills, including data profiling, root‑cause analysis, trend analysis, and evidence‑based decision‑making.
• Technical grounding in Python, SQL, data analysis, data visualization, or similar tools used to assess and improve data quality.
• Experience translating business and client needs into clear requirements for Engineering, Product, vendors, or operational teams.
• Good understanding of data governance, data lifecycle management, data modelling, metadata, and data integrity principles.
• Superb communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence senior partners and align distributed teams.
• Ability to operate through ambiguity, set direction, prioritize effectively, and drive measurable quality improvements.

We’d love to see:

• Experience with Economics, macroeconomic, government, survey, forecast, time‑series, or vendor‑supplied datasets.
• Bloomberg Terminal, BQL, Enterprise, or Bloomberg data workflow experience.
• Experience designing quality strategies in complex, regulated, or high‑control environments.
• Experience using AI, machine learning, anomaly detection, statistical methods, or automation to improve data quality workflows.
• Experience defining validation frameworks for automated, AI‑assisted, or imputed data outputs.
• Experience with observability tools, workflow orchestration, issue tracking, data catalogues, lineage, metadata management, or modern DataOps practices.
• Project management experience with Agile delivery, backlog management, JIRA, QlikSense, or similar tools.
• Understanding of Causal Inference.
• CDMP certification, or progress toward it, is a plus.
