TS Imagine has promoted Thomas Bodenski to Chief Operating Officer, based in New York, to lead the firm’s business operations across TS Imagine’s integrated trading, portfolio, and real-time risk solutions. 

As COO, he will be in charge of the global execution of the data strategy and spearhead strategic cross-departmental and cross-product initiatives.

The provider of trading, portfolio, and risk management solutions was born this year out of a merger between TradingScreen and Imagine Software and its software is connected to a network of brokers, banks, and exchanges.

Thomas Bodenski promoted after one year at TS Imagine

Thomas Bodenski, who was previously Chief Transformation and Data Officer for TS Imagine, has nearly 30 years of experience developing technology for some of the biggest names within the industry.

Rob Flatley, Chief Executive Officer of TS Imagine, said: “Since joining TS Imagine a year ago, Thomas has made a significant impact on the business as Chief Transformation and Data Officer, using his extensive technical and operational expertise to consolidate and develop TS Imagine’s offering following the merger of TradingScreen and Imagine Software.
