The Opportunity  

Join our global Client Services team as an Associate Consultant within the EDM Change function, supporting the delivery of onboarding and change activity for our EDMaaS clients. Working alongside experienced consultants, you’ll help ensure client changes are delivered consistently, governed appropriately, and transitioned smoothly into business-as-usual (BAU) operations. 

You’ll build a strong foundation in change governance, documentation, and operational processes—contributing to impact assessments, maintaining client runbooks, and coordinating updates across teams. As your capability grows, you’ll begin to triage and deliver low- to mid-complexity change requests independently, escalating risks and issues for review and learning how to communicate progress and impacts clearly to clients and stakeholders. 

This is a hands-on role for someone who is curious about financial data and enjoys structured delivery in a fast-paced environment. You’ll gain exposure across clients, datasets, and service types while developing the skills and confidence to progress into broader ownership of change delivery, deeper subject-matter expertise, and future leadership opportunities within the EDM Change team. 

 What you will do:  

Process, Governance & Standards 

• Follow defined change governance procedures with guidance. 

• Complete CAB Impact Assessments with support from senior colleagues. 

• Maintain client‑specific and generic support documentation. 

• Apply onboarding, change, and operational procedures in line with the Transition Framework. 

• Build a solid knowledge base across clients and service types to support future SME growth. 

Onboarding & Change Delivery 

• Complete onboarding‑related tasks under the direction of senior consultants. 

• Support the handover from Change to Operations for onboardings and significant client changes. 

• Triage and deliver low‑ to mid‑complexity change requests independently. 

• Maintain accurate client updates on assigned RSDs. 

• Investigate escalated issues and propose solutions for review. 

Issue Resolution & Technical Contribution 

• Assist with RCAs, service performance updates and preparation for Client Experience meetings. 

• Support change‑related analysis, documentation updates, and operational insights. 

• Build foundational technical skills through training and certifications. 

• Develop knowledge of Rimes tools, workflows, and data processes. 

Collaboration, Influence & Client Engagement 

• Begin developing relationships with clients and internal stakeholders. 

• Maintain regular client communication for assigned responsibilities. 

• Learn to articulate progress and explain change impacts. 

• Contribute to cross‑team collaboration by sharing observations and proposing improvements. 

People Development 

• Learn from senior colleagues and develop early‑career capability in change delivery and EDM services. 

Who you are:  

• A recent graduate with a technical or data‑related background; or 

• Someone with early‑career experience in EDM Services or similar data ingestion and processing environments. 

• Curious, proactive, and eager to expand knowledge in financial data, workflows, and client delivery. 

• Comfortable analysing problems, following structured processes, and learning from senior team members. 

What you will gain: In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to develop and expand your expertise in the following areas: 

• Technical development: Familiarity with Python for data analysis and visualisation, plus hands‑on experience with Rimes technologies. 

• Market & dataset exposure: Experience with equity and fixed‑income indices, ESG data, ratings, and corporate actions. 

• Operational experience: Early exposure to ratings datasets and opportunities to support training or oversight activities. 

• Client & stakeholder confidence: Experience collaborating with clients and internal teams across multiple departments. 

• Change management capability: Foundations in change governance, project workflows, and delivery best practice. 

• Professional growth: Development of adaptability, communication skills, and collaboration in a fast‑paced, evolving environment. 

• Career progression: A clear path toward future SME specialisation or managerial responsibilities as you advance.
