About the Role:

The Financial Risk Analytics team within S&P Global Market Intelligence provides state-of-the-art products and solutions to help financial institutions measure and manage their counterparty credit risk, market risk, and derivative valuation adjustments. Our innovative technology stack includes a fully vectorized pricing library, machine learning, and big data solutions, enabling scalability and precision. Our products are trusted by the largest tier-one banks as well as smaller niche firms globally.

The Impact: This role sits at the intersection of business development, financial analysis, and go-to-market execution. You will help the business understand cost and revenue drivers across hosted and managed services, support consistent pricing decisions, and provide insight that enables the team to identify efficiency, profitability, and growth opportunities.

Responsibilities:

• Analyse the cost base of Financial Risk Analytics hosted and managed services, providing clear insight into the drivers of costs across solutions and clients.
• Produce and present management information on a regular basis to track business costs, revenue considerations, and solution-level performance.
• Investigate direct and indirect allocated costs, challenge assumptions where appropriate, and recommend practical actions to manage costs more effectively.
• Partner with stakeholders across Finance, Client Experience, Product, and Technology to gather inputs, validate assumptions, and support informed commercial decisions.
• Maintain pricing tools and models using current cost estimates, expected future increases, and relevant business assumptions.
• Support consistent pricing across comparable client use cases, helping the team apply a clear and disciplined approach to go-to-market decisions.

What We're Looking For:

Basic Required Qualifications:

• Minimum 5 years' experience in capital markets, risk technology, financial analytics, or business development within financial services.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret cost, revenue, and pricing information and turn it into clear business insight.
• Advanced Excel skills and strong experience using PowerPoint and other reporting or presentation tools to communicate analysis effectively.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex financial or technical information clearly to a range of stakeholders.
• Ability to connect day-to-day analysis to wider business priorities, take an end-to-end view of issues, and identify opportunities for process improvement.
• Collaborative working style, with the ability to actively listen, build effective relationships, and contribute positively to a wider global team.
• Consistent attention to detail, sound judgement, and the ability to deliver high-quality work to agreed timelines with appropriate autonomy.

We require all candidates who reach the final stage of our interview process to attend at least one in-person interview, which is ordinarily at your nearest S&P Global office. This must be completed before we can proceed to an offer.

Additional Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting go-to-market activity, pricing, financial planning, commercial analysis, or business case development for technology-enabled financial products.
• Knowledge of hosted or managed services, SaaS pricing, cloud cost drivers, or financial risk analytics solutions.
• Interest in financial markets and an understanding of how financial institutions use risk analytics, pricing, and valuation tools.
• Experience maintaining pricing models, management information dashboards, or recurring reporting packs for senior stakeholders.
• Ability to identify day-to-day problems, suggest creative solutions, and communicate existing principles or guidance to support consistent ways of working.
