The Role
 
We are looking for a senior Capital Markets Data Product leader to drive the strategy, development and commercial growth of a portfolio of market data and indicative pricing products across APAC.
This is a highly strategic and commercially focused position, combining product management, capital markets expertise and revenue generation. You will own the product roadmap and work closely with Sales, Broking, Technology, Data Science, Analytics and senior stakeholders to identify new data opportunities and turn them into scalable, revenue-generating products.
The role will have a particular focus on growing the business across Asia-Pacific, while contributing to the broader global product strategy.
 
Key Responsibilities

• Own and execute the product strategy and multi-year roadmap for capital markets data and indicative pricing products.
• Identify new opportunities to monetise proprietary market data and broker-generated information.
• Drive the full product lifecycle, from market requirements and business cases through development, launch, client adoption and ongoing optimisation.
• Take commercial ownership of the product portfolio, including pricing, revenue growth and P&L performance.
• Work closely with broking desks and senior stakeholders to identify new datasets and maximise the commercial value of existing data.
• Partner with Technology, Engineering, Quantitative Research, Data Science and Analytics teams to develop new data and analytics solutions.
• Engage directly with buy-side, sell-side and market infrastructure clients to understand their requirements and identify new product opportunities.
• Develop go-to-market strategies with Sales, Marketing and Client Success, including sales enablement, client use cases and product positioning.
• Build strategic relationships with third-party data providers and industry partners.
• Ensure product methodologies, data quality, governance and pricing remain aligned with market developments and regulatory requirements.
• Represent APAC market requirements within the wider global product organisation.
• Provide senior leadership and mentorship across the Product organisation.

 
Essential Experience

• Significant experience within capital markets data, market data, pricing services, valuations, trading or a related product environment.
• Strong understanding of Fixed Income and Derivatives, including market structure, liquidity, valuation and trading workflows.
• Proven experience building, launching and commercialising revenue-generating data or analytics products.
• Understanding of institutional workflows across Trading, Portfolio Management, Risk, Valuation, IPV and Regulatory functions.
• Experience working across Broking/Trading, Technology, Quantitative, Data and Commercial teams.
• Strong commercial track record with experience in product strategy, pricing, revenue growth and/or P&L ownership.
• Strong senior stakeholder and client management skills.
• Excellent communication and presentation capabilities.
• Strong Excel and SQL skills.
• Willingness to travel across APAC and internationally when required.

Desirable

• Strong knowledge of Asian Fixed Income and Derivatives markets.
• Experience across Rates, Credit, FX, Inflation, Emerging Markets or Structured Products.
• Exposure to platforms such as Bloomberg, LSEG Workspace, Numerix, Yield Book or ICE Data Services.
• Python, VBA or other analytical/programming experience.
• Experience working with market data vendors, brokers, exchanges, banks or financial institutions.
• A strong commercial and entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to identify new data opportunities and take them through to revenue.

Ideal Candidate Profile
 
The ideal candidate will be someone who sits at the intersection of:
Capital Markets + Market Data + Product Management + Commercialisation
You should be comfortable speaking with senior traders, brokers, buy-side and sell-side clients, while also being able to work with technical, quantitative and data teams to turn market requirements into commercially successful products.
 
This is not purely a product management role — strong commercial judgement, capital markets knowledge and experience monetising data are critical to success.
