This individual will operate as a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders, driving complex, multi-workstream programs that span business process transformation, technology implementation, and operating model design. The role requires deep domain expertise, executive presence, and the ability to influence decision-making at the highest levels across both client organizations and Bloomberg.
The individual selected for this position will lead mission-critical programs with significant visibility, often involving multiple stakeholders, regions, and integrated Bloomberg and third-party solutions.

- Drive the design and implementation of a client’s Bloomberg Target Operating Model (TOM), aligning technology solutions with strategic business goals
- Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and opportunities across programs, and lead mitigation and resolution efforts
- Mentor and provide guidance to junior team members, contributing to the overall growth and capability of the implementation team
- Champion best practices and contribute to the evolution of Bloomberg’s implementation methodologies and client engagement models
You’ll need to have:
- Minimum 10+ years of experience in enterprise program or project management, preferably within Buy-Side technology implementations (e.g., Order Management, Compliance, Electronic Trading systems)
- Proven track record of leading large-scale, complex transformation programs for financial institutions, ideally within Japan
- Deep market knowledge of how various asset classes (i.e., Fixed Income, Equity, Alternatives) are traded in Japan from Front-to-Back
- Exceptional presentation and communication skills in both English and Japanese, with experience engaging senior executives
- Extensive experience in program governance, stakeholder management, and cross-functional leadership within large financial institutions
- Deep understanding of workflows across portfolio management, order management, trading, compliance, and operations for institutional investment managers
- Strong ability to influence and align diverse stakeholder groups across business and technology functions
- Experience partnering with Product Managers and senior leadership to shape product strategy based on client needs
- Ability to manage multiple complex programs concurrently with a high degree of autonomy and accountability
