  • Develop and execute a targeted go-to-market strategy aimed at high-growth asset managers and institutional investors.
  • Drive large, complex transactions while maintaining momentum across smaller deals.

Pipeline Development

  • Build and manage a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities through proactive outreach, networking, and industry engagement.
  • Leverage personal and professional networks to gain early access to RFPs and key decision-makers.
  • Partner with marketing and lead generation teams to optimize conversion rates and accelerate sales cycles.

Market Strategy & Commercial Acumen

  • Stay ahead of market trends, competitor activity, and client needs to position differentiated solutions.
  • Identify high-margin opportunities and craft compelling commercial proposals.
  • Provide feedback to influence product and service development based on market insights.

Team Leadership & Performance Culture

  • Recruit, coach, and lead a high-performing sales team with a focus on accountability and results.
  • Set ambitious KPIs and quotas, and foster a culture of urgency, resilience, and success.
  • Promote a collaborative, high-energy environment that drives performance.

Reporting & Stakeholder Management

  • Deliver regular reporting on sales metrics, forecasts, pipeline health, and client activity.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional leadership to ensure seamless execution and scalable growth.

Qualifications

  • 15+ years of experience in financial services sales, with at least 5 years in fund administration or a closely related field (e.g., prime brokerage, custody, fund platforms).
  • Proven track record of exceeding multimillion-dollar sales targets in complex B2B environments.
  • Deep understanding of fund administration services across hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, and real estate.
  • Strong network of buy-side executives, fund managers, COOs, and CFOs across North and/or Latin America.
  • Exceptional negotiation, commercial strategy, and closing skills.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with strong business judgment and a bias for action.
