Senior Enterprise Sales, Hedge Funds
Senior Sales Executive (Hedge Fund Treasury) - Confidential Fintech
Location: New York, NY (Hybrid: 4 days/week in Manhattan)
About the Company
We're representing an award‑winning, venture-backed fintech platform modernizing treasury operations for hedge funds and alternative asset managers. The cloud‑native system aggregates and normalizes financing data from prime brokers to give funds real-time visibility into balances, rates, and costs-ultimately driving transparency, optimizing liquidity, and reducing financing expenses.
The team blends finance industry veterans (former heads of trading, COOs, and prime brokerage leaders) with seasoned technologists. Development is fully in-house, with a UK-based engineering team and a growing US presence near Grand Central. The culture is collaborative, no‑ego, and execution-oriented.
The Opportunity
We're hiring experienced Sales Executives to lead US origination-old‑school, relationship-driven selling to sophisticated hedge funds. You'll open doors, host coffee meetings, and create momentum. Once interest is engaged, you'll partner with internal specialists to drive the process to close.
