Sales Executive - Financial Services

Sales Executive – Financial Services

UK Remote | Enterprise Sales | Data / Infrastructure

We’re working with a well‐established B2B software business that builds enterprise data and infrastructure technology used by financial services organisations to deliver real‐time data securely and at scale.

This is a specialist sales role suited to someone who has sold complex, platform-level technology into financial services (or similar regulated enterprise environments), and is comfortable with consultative sales cycles and high‐value deals.

The Company & Product

The business develops real‐time data and infrastructure technology that sits behind the scenes, enabling organisations to move, manage and distribute live, business‐critical data across systems and applications.

Their platform helps customers:

• Reduce infrastructure complexity and cost
• Improve performance and scalability
• Support cloud migration and modernisation strategies

It’s used in regulated, data‐intensive environments where reliability, performance and security are critical - including trading platforms, market‐data distribution and other real‐time applications.

The company has recently been acquired by a global software group with 180+ portfolio companies, providing strong long‐term backing and opportunities for career progression within the wider organisation.

Target Market

This role has responsibility for the financial services sector, with typical clients including:

• Banks and sell‐side firms
• Asset managers and hedge funds
• Market‐data providers and fintechs

The role involves engaging with senior commercial and technical stakeholders across complex enterprise environments.

The Role

• Full 360° sales role, owning the sales process end‐to‐end
• Primary focus on new business, alongside account growth
• Typical deal sizes of £300k–£650k (over contract term)
• Consultative sales cycles, usually c.3 months post‐qualification
• Strong internal support, including pre‐sales, existing pipeline and established CRM
• Fully remote within the UK, with travel expected for client meetings and industry events
• Joining a small, specialist sales team, reporting to an international Business Development Director

About You

You’re likely to be a strong fit if you:

• Have experience selling enterprise software or platforms (e.g. data, infrastructure, cloud, analytics, integration)
• Have sold into financial services or other regulated enterprise environments
• Are comfortable selling complex, non end‐user technology
• Have experience with multi‐stakeholder, consultative sales cycles
• Take a value‐led, problem‐solving approach to enterprise sales
• Enjoy operating in a hands‐on individual contributor role within a lean team

You don’t need to be hands‐on technically, but you do need a strong technical understanding and the ability to engage confidently with both commercial and technical stakeholders.

Why Consider This Role

• Specialist product solving real, high‐value data and infrastructure challenges
• Meaningful deal sizes and strong earning potential
• Backed by a global software group with significant growth opportunities
• Remote‐first setup with international exposure
• Opportunity to build out and grow the financial services market
