The position offers the opportunity to deepen your derivatives knowledge across asset classes, build commercial and client-facing skills, and understand how your work contributes to the team’s broader goals and service quality.

Responsibilities:

• Organize and run daily and monthly client valuation processes, taking hands-on responsibility for assigned accounts.
• Investigate and resolve straightforward and complex price challenges, using market data and valuation analysis to reach clear, well-supported outcomes for clients.
• Review derivatives valuations and market datasets, perform quality-control checks, identify potential issues and follow them through to resolution within agreed timelines.
• Run, refine and help automate data capture and cleansing processes to improve quality, efficiency and scalability.
• Contribute to the design, testing and ongoing improvement of S&P Global valuation systems and new products, bringing forward practical ideas and solutions.
• Build and maintain effective client relationships; host client calls, present the Portfolio Valuations service, act as an escalation contact, and review and resolve incidents.
• Work collaboratively across functional and regional teams, provide support beyond assigned tasks when needed, and follow the controls required to maintain service quality.
• All employees are required to work from the office a minimum of 2 days per week

What We’re Looking For:

Basic Required Qualifications:

• A degree in a quantitative discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Good understanding of OTC derivatives in one or more asset classes.
• Good understanding of financial markets and a strong interest in developing broader knowledge of OTC derivatives across asset classes.
• Strong working knowledge of common office tools, including Excel; experience using VBA to support analysis or process improvement.
• A client-service mindset and the confidence to communicate with external clients regularly by email, phone and in meetings.
• Strong attention to detail, with the ability to identify potential issues, follow clear guidelines and determine an appropriate course of action.
• Effective organization and time-management skills, including the ability to assess urgency, meet timelines and maintain quality standards.
• Clear, structured and professional written and verbal communication, with active participation in team discussions and collaborative work.
• A resourceful, solution-oriented approach, with the initiative to support colleagues, contribute beyond assigned tasks and look for ways to improve quality.
• 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

• Relevant practical experience in derivative pricing, valuations, market data or a related financial-services environment.

• Programming or querying experience in a language such as SQL or Python.

• Good understanding of the market and reference datasets used for OTC derivatives across asset classes.
