managers and corporations, helping them, through our intelligence to make informed decisions on datasets. In doing
so, we aim to save them both time and money.
Our specialism sits in alternative data. From credit card transactional data to social media sentiment products to
mobile app datasets - our goal is to ensure we communicate not only what alternative data products exist, but also
why someone would want to use them.
Headquartered in London, with offices in NYC and Shanghai, we have expanded our business in recent years to cater
to new markets, as well as to offer additional services, such as an alternative data conference business.
JOB DESCRIPTION
Neudata’s research team is at the core of what we do. Clients of Neudata have access to:
a) Our research portal, allowing them to browse our catalogue of dataset reports, each of which is written by a
member of the research team and pertaining to a dataset (e.g. short positions data by vendor X).
b) Our research team’s expertise, allowing us to help them make informed data decisions (e.g. through calls
where we share our opinion on the most appropriate dataset for their needs)
Joining Neudata as a Research Analyst, the role will primarily entail:

use cases of different datasets).
The candidate is not required to have advanced knowledge or experience of data science. We are looking for someone
with a hunger to become an industry expert in alternative data andan eagerness to help discover new, under the radar
datasets.
Preferably, the candidate will have some knowledge of the investment management industry, including some work
