Senior Data Management Professional - Data Product Owner - FAST-Infra Sustainable Infrastructure

At Bloomberg we believe in the importance of a sustainable world, and strive to positively influence climate change, among other things, through reliable and transparent data. That’s why we’re taking action, using our expertise in data – and decades of experience leading from the front – to introduce the FAST-Infra Sustainable Infrastructure label to the broader market.

Finance to Accelerate the Sustainable Transition-Infrastructure (FAST-Infra) is a public-private initiative formed by HSBC, IFC, OECD, CPI and GIF under the auspices of the One Planet Lab - an initiative of the President of France. Fast-Infra proposes practical and inclusive solutions aimed at fostering sustainable infrastructure as a mainstream and liquid asset class by embedding sustainability across the life cycle of infrastructure projects and by crowding in private investment at scale.

Bloomberg together with Global Infrastructure Basel (GIB) will work together as the Data Repository and Secretariat respectively of the FAST-Infra Sustainable Infrastructure Label, a globally applicable label for projects demonstrating significant positive sustainability performance. The label is an initiative led by the FAST-Infra Group and initially supported by the governments of France and Singapore, originally conceived of in the One Planet Lab.
