The Client Data Onboarding Specialist
The Client Data Onboarding Specialist plays a vital role in ensuring clients are successfully connected to the data sources required for our products and services. This role serves as the primary bridge between clients, data sources, and internal technical teams to determine what data is needed, where it comes from, and when it must flow into our systems.
You will lead the data onboarding workflow end-to-end—coordinating requirements, managing communication, setting expectations, and providing transparent updates via email and the client dashboard. This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of communication, coordination, and data operations, and who enjoys building strong relationships while driving clear outcomes.
Job Responsibilities
Client & Source Coordination
- Act as the primary point of contact for clients during the data onboarding process.
- Partner directly with clients to understand required data elements, delivery cadence, and key business needs.
- Work with data sources (e.g., custodians, fund administrators, third-party providers) to communicate specifications and ensure required data is added to our inbound feeds.
