I was responsible for increasing & retaining revenue streams for the enterprise data and trading businesses through the aid of strategic partnerships or M&A activity. To achieve this my focus was on either recommendations for M&A or identifying white spaces for new strategic partnerships that would provide a new revenue stream for the business. Once identified I was responsible for negotiating and then setting up these partnerships and bringing them to market through our sales teams.
