Data & Ops Manager, Rankings

1.2What you will own

1.2.1Leading the team

• Critically review every operational process you inherit. Decide what the best version looks like, implement it, and document it so a new joiner can run it without you in the room.
• Manage and develop three team members. Set the bar for analytical rigour and follow-through. Coach, review, unblock.

1.2.2Communication

• Hold data-quality conversations with client technical and operations contacts without London supervision: clarifying submitted data, explaining how the rankings are produced in plain language, walking through validation findings, and agreeing remediation steps.
• Communicate findings clearly to the London team and other colleagues - concise written notes, simple visuals, a sharp summary of what changed and why it matters. Interpretation, not data dumps.

1.2.3Operational delivery

• Submission operations: tracking buy-side submissions end-to-end, first-pass validation, flagging missing or implausible inputs, escalating clearly and early.
• Data preparation and scoring: cleaning, normalising and structuring submitted datasets; applying scoring logic; re-running scoring as inputs evolve; producing diagnostics and worked examples.
• Maintain the analyst and firm directory and the rules that govern it: sector and coverage logic, analyst moves, roster locks and transfers.
• Track delivery across the operational pipeline - submissions in flight, processing status, blockers, deadlines and report it cleanly to London on a weekly cadence.
• Keep the data honest: validation, anonymisation and aggregation rules, change logs, and a clear audit trail behind every output.

1.2.4Analytics, insight, and inbound queries

• Interrogate, with the help of your team, the rankings data to find what matters - trends, patterns, outliers, and the stories worth telling - and turn that into clear insight rather than raw output.
• Handle inbound queries about the data and the rankings - from the London team and, where they arise, from clients - investigating quickly, answering accurately, and escalating anything touching methodology or commercial terms to London.

1.3What we are looking for

• 7+ years of experience in data operations, analytics or a closely related analytical operations function.
• A strong communicator. You can explain something complex to a non-specialist without jargon, stay calm and clear when challenged, and disagree - including with senior people - respectfully and without friction.
• Demonstrable track record of taking an inherited process, redesigning it, and producing the documentation that made it survive turnover.
• Strong analytical and data visualisation skills. Excel to a high standard is required; working SQL is required; working Python is a strong plus as are use of BI tools.
• Experience managing a small team of analysts, with evidence of developing people rather than simply allocating work.
• Financial services experience - sell-side, buy-side, market data, index operations, research, or a similar regulated data environment.
• Experience running structured project tracking and reporting for an operational function or delivery team.
• Confidence handling external client conversations on technical and data-quality topics, including with senior counterparties.
• Self-directed working style. You spot gaps, raise them, and close them without being told.
• Comfortable working full UK hours from Bangalore.
