About the Role

We're looking for an Operations Specialist to join our team. The Operations team is responsible for the period between a client signing with us and that client running successfully on our product. That work spans requirement gathering, delivery coordination across internal teams, and the day-to-day client contact that keeps a project on schedule. This role owns a significant part of it.

Alongside client delivery, you will support the Business Development team with research and client-facing materials, and take responsibility for improving the internal processes and documentation that delivery depends on.

Key responsibilities

- Project Execution: Support the implementation of new client projects by managing operational activities, gathering and documenting requirements, and ensuring timely delivery in collaboration with internal teams.
- Client Relationship Management: Maintain ongoing contact with clients during project setup and execution, ensuring clarity on timelines, deliverables, and feedback loops.
- Business Development Support: Assist the Business Development team with research, preparation of client materials, and follow-up activities related to ongoing or prospective partnerships.
- Cross-Team Coordination: Liaise with internal teams (Product, Research, Engineering, and Operations) to ensure project milestones are met and any blockers are promptly resolved.
- Process Improvement: Contribute to the optimization of internal workflows, documentation standards,



and reporting tools to enhance operational efficiency.
- Knowledge Management: Maintain accurate project documentation and ensure information is properly tracked in project management tools.
- Research: Assist with market benchmarking and research on potential prospects, preparing background briefs and use-cases.

What We're Looking For

- 2 - 3 years of professional experience in operations, client delivery, consulting, or a comparable role requiring coordination across teams;
- Degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or a related quantitative field;
- A working understanding of how commercial, technical, and research functions fit together within a company, and the ability to learn an unfamiliar domain quickly;
- Comfortable stepping into an existing workstream, keeping it running smoothly, and taking ownership over time;

- Fluent written and spoken English, with the ability to communicate confidently with senior external stakeholders.

Bonus Points

- Prior exposure to ISO standards or certification processes is a strong plus;

- Experience in fintech, banking, asset management, or consulting, whether academic or professional;

- Comfortable working with structured data and spreadsheets;
- Genuine curiosity for financial markets, alternative data, or quantitative research;
- Working proficiency with project management and documentation tools (e.g., Notion, Asana, Jira, Confluence, or similar).

Why Join Us?

- Work at the leading edge of technology, leveraging our decade of experience in proprietary AI to build the next generation of industry-defining tools.
- Competitive salary & truly flexible work environment.
- Vantaggi from an unlimited learning and development budget to stay at the bleeding edge of AI research, alongside a fast-track path into technical leadership or principal research roles.
- Collaborate daily with an ultra-international team (18+ nationalities) spread across our offices in Milan, London and New York.
- Annual company retreat at a stunning location.
- Fast-track career progression, with opportunities to grow into leadership roles.
