  • Ensure deep mastery of Sphere’s capabilities and use cases, and actively coach BDMs to deliver compelling, tailored client narratives and consistently high-quality, impactful demos
  • Act as a role model in sales execution, leading by example
  • Develop and continuously refine market intelligence, identifying target accounts, key decision-makers, and buying structures within institutional clients
  • Collaborate with Marketing and Product teams to refine positioning and go-to-market strategy

Requirements

  • Significant experience in institutional sales targeting asset management, wealth management, investment banks, pension funds, insurance companies or similar
  • Strong track record of closing complex, high-value deals
  • Experience managing and coaching sales teams (player-coach mindset is essential)
  • Deep understanding of continental European financial markets and landscape
  • Strong network within institutional investors (highly desirable)
  • Highly driven, hands-on, and execution-focused

What We’re Looking For

  • “Always be closing” mentality with strategic discipline
  • Comfortable operating at both strategic and execution levels
  • Credibility with senior stakeholders in financial institutions
  • Ability to inspire and elevate a sales team through personal example

Why Join Us?

  • Work at the leading edge of technology, leveraging our decade of experience in proprietary AI to build the next generation of industry-defining tools.
  • Competitive salary & truly flexible work environment.
  • Benefit from an unlimited learning and development budget to stay at the bleeding edge of AI research, alongside a fast-track path into technical leadership or principal research roles.
