Sales Executive – Index Sales, Real & Private Assets
This is an opportunity to join a growing and global team that is bringing new and disruptive products to the private asset investment sector with previously unavailable data that tracks the performance and risks of private markets. These new roles are focused on private equity investors in the Americas, especially LPs but also large GPs with a quant edge.
Only candidates with significant experience in selling indices and benchmark data to asset owners and managers or consultants will be considered for this position. Experience in private markets and data a strong plus but not necessary.
The ability to present science-based, quant-driven data and benchmarking solutions to sophisticated clients is paramount. The role also requires presenting a technical product (calculated, model-based index) in a market that is not always used to quantitative approaches i.e., a disruptive product. The successful candidate will have experience selling advanced data solutions involving a degree of modelling and quantitative approaches e.g. Hedge fund indices.
The role also requires actively researching leads and opportunities and extensive traveling in North America.
Compensation is competitive but highly dependent on meeting sales targets. This role is based in the US (remote) or in the SIPA London office but requiring significant travel to North America.
To apply for this offer, please send a CV and a cover letter.
