Job Summary:
Blackstone Credit & Insurance (BXCI) is seeking a seasoned Data Governance/Data Operations subject-matter expert with deep expertise in insurance-related data to own the end-to-end lifecycle of data supporting our insurance clients, who invest across the credit markets in bank loans, CLOs, corporate bonds, CMBS, RMBS, ABS, ABF, alternatives, and private credit.
Based in Bangalore, you will act as SME for the insurance platform and the day-to-day liaison for our New York and London teams.

Reconcile facility balances, cash and interest activity, and collateral positions against servicers, trustees, agents, and fund administrators; drive breaks to resolution with clear ownership.
Deliver executive-ready KPIs on data quality, operational SLAs, and portfolio impacts; lead remediation programs for systemic data issues.
Stakeholder Partnership
Serve as the Bangalore-based point of contact for the New York and London teams; provide daily overlapping-hours coverage, a documented handoff at the open and close of each region's day, and timely escalation of unresolved items.
Partner with PMs, research, and risk to deliver decision-ready ABF datasets for portfolio construction, hedging, and scenario analysis.
