The Opportunity

Our client is a premier provider of global intelligence—an organization that doesn't just provide data, but clarity in an increasingly volatile world. As the Head of Capital Markets, you won't just be closing deals; you’ll be architecting the commercial engine of a world leader in risk insights and financial modeling.

This is a high-impact, dual-threat role. We need a Sales Powerhouse who can navigate the complexities of Tier-1 investment banks, hedge funds, and asset managers, and a Visionary Leader who can build, mentor, and inspire an elite commercial team.

2. Strategic Leadership

You aren't just hitting targets; you’re setting the trajectory. You will continue to execute the go-to-market strategy for the Capital Markets vertical on a Global scale, identifying untapped market opportunities and ensuring product-market fit remains razor-sharp.

3. Build the Dynasty

Recruit, retain, and develop a team of elite account executives. You’ll foster a culture of high performance, commercial rigor, and relentless curiosity.

Act as the vital link between the front line and the internal teams. You will translate the sophisticated needs of traders and portfolio managers into future product iterations.
