It’s up to you to make it happen.

What’s the role:

Bloomberg’s Legal & Compliance Department plays a critical role in supporting our businesses and operations around the world. We move quickly and thoughtfully to help address a variety of complex legal issues that arise across the Company’s various businesses. Our team is made up of talented and hardworking professionals who think creatively and work collaboratively in an open environment to deliver results, drive innovation, and solve difficult problems. We also recognize the value of diversity and inclusion in cultivating a supportive workplace and the importance of giving back to our communities as evidenced by our award-winning pro bono program.

Based in London, you will be an integral part of the Legal department, working closely with and supported by your Legal Negotiations colleagues. You will be responsible for managing the legal responses for Requests For Proposals (RFPs) from EMEA and APAC Sales Support. You will review our Company’s entire response to the bid to ensure it does not put the Company at legal risk, updating the RFP as needed. You will also negotiate Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) and any included legal terms and conditions with support from Legal Counsel, and respond to associated requests for various forms and licensing contracts associated with the RFPs. Our customers range from major financial institutions to government entities across a wide range of fin-tech products and services that are dynamic and often cutting-edge. We’ll rely on you to build internal partnerships with Sales Support in EMEA and APAC and balance both the needs and drive of Bloomberg Sales and our customers in a time-sensitive environment.

We’ll trust you to:

- Provide responses to Legal & Compliance related questions for all customer RFPs
- Review final bids in their entirety for undue legal risk prior to submission
- Respond and negotiate associated RFP legal terms and conditions (including NDAs) within tight deadlines, with support from the Negotiations team or Counsel
- Work in close partnership with Legal Negotiations Specialists, Counsel, Sales and Sales Support, and Product
- Multitask and manage multiple time sensitive tasks and projects in a challenging, fast-paced and fluid environment
- Operate in an open and communicative way with our colleagues and customers
- Be a quick learner who can quickly adapt to proprietary technology
- Be an active participant in identifying and supporting projects that continuously improve our own operations and as well as those that streamline processes between us and our business partners.

You’ll need to have:

- A bachelor’s degree and 2-5 years of relevant experience*
- Experience negotiating some light contractual legal terms & conditions, preferably data / technology contracts and licensing software solutions
- Experience in a customer or supplier contract management type role; we highly prefer experience working on RFPs and NDAs
- Excellent organizational and time management skills
- Superb written and oral communication skills
- Strong attention to detail
- Superb work ethic
- Ability to apply good judgment in identifying legal issues, weighing risk, and recognizing when issues require escalation
- Adaptability to the changing needs of our business partners and external customers

*Please note we use years of experience as a guide, but we certainly will consider applications from all candidates who are able to demonstrate the skills necessary for the role.


We’d love to see:

- Strong interpersonal skills and confidence along with excellent customer service skills
- German or French language skills a plus
- An independent and strategic thinker who is service-oriented, takes ownership, and is forward-thinking
- One who is eager to learn, proactive, independent and solution driven
- Someone who is responsive, reliable and has a positive can-do attitude
- An enthusiastic teammate, receptive to and actions feedback
- A self- starter who can work with minimal supervision and is independent in prioritizing their work
