Senior Institutional Sales (German Speaking)

Senior Institutional Sales - German Speaking

Salary: £90,000 - £120,000 + 10-15% commission

Location: London (4 days/week in office - potential for 3)

It’s easy to hide behind brand, inbound, or process.

This role doesn’t let you do that.

If you are good at opening doors, creating meetings, and carrying a number without excuses, you will do very well here. If you need a brand to do the heavy lifting, you’ll feel exposed very quickly.

This is a sales role where output is visible, progress is measured in meetings and deals, and performance becomes obvious fast.

Why you’ll love it here

  • You sell to pension funds, asset managers, hedge funds and institutional allocators
  • Deals are real and meaningful, typically six figures and paid upfront
  • Very little competition once you find the right buyer
  • Short sales cycles when there is genuine need
  • You are trusted to run your patch without being babysat
  • Strong commission with fast pay out

Day to day, your job is to open doors and turn interest into revenue. You will prospect, book meetings, run conversations with senior buy side decision makers, and own accounts end to end. You will not be expected to be a technical specialist.

Pre sales support is always with you in meetings. What matters is that you create momentum, keep deals moving, and build a pipeline you actually believe in.

The business sells a data and analytics platform used by institutional investors to research, compare, and allocate to systematic investment strategies across banks.

It sits between investment banks and investors as a neutral layer, solving fragmented data, poor transparency, and weak tooling. The product is established, global, and already used by serious institutions.

This role suits someone who:

  • 5-6+ years selling data, analytics, or risk products into institutional buy side firms
  • Proven experience carrying a real revenue number, not a supporting role
  • Sold directly to portfolio managers, quants, risk teams, and CIO level buyers
  • Comfortable creating meetings from scratch rather than waiting for inbound

If you want a senior sales role where effort is visible, performance is clear, and results actually matter, this could be the role for you.
