Description & Requirements
The European Union is a strategic partner to Bloomberg, aligned with our shared priorities to deepen capital markets, drive sustainable investment, and accelerate digital transformation. Through our data, insight, and innovation, we contribute to the policy and regulatory frameworks that shape global markets — and we do so as a deeply embedded and constructive actor across the EU. Through our philanthropic initiatives globally and across the EU, Bloomberg strives to give back to the communities we operate in, across the EU and globally.

Our Brussels office is not just a workplace — it is a strategic center of engagement at the heart of European policymaking. Located steps from the EU institutions, it reflects Bloomberg's commitment to European leadership, regional impact, and the future of markets and society. Our presence spans across the Union, and we work closely with both EU authorities and national supervisors that regulate our business and influence the operating environment for our clients.

You will serve as a key counselor to Bloomberg's senior leadership, guiding how the company navigates Europe's regulatory, political, and economic landscape with foresight, influence, and impact. You will be supported by, and work in close partnership with, Bloomberg's External Relations team, ensuring the role combines high-level vision with strong on-the-ground execution.

This is a unique opportunity to steer one of the world's most influential companies at the intersection of capital markets, sustainable finance, digital innovation, and economic transformation.
