Role overview: 

After proving the value and product market fit of our analytics platform we are now accelerating its rollout. This will be one of the most important roles we are hiring for at SilverTide.

You will be responsible for selling the analytics platform as well as onboarding and training new users. Our clients are hedge fund PMs and strategists seeking opportunities within IRD markets.

Responsibilities:

1. Selling the analytics platform to new clients (20% of your time):

· Our target client list is established, and we have key connections at the ready - you will need to demo the platform to clients to sell additional licenses.

2. Onboarding and training clients (70% of your time). Practically you will need to:

· understand your users and their market analysis approach;

· train them on the platform in a way tailored to their market approach;

· You’re highly technical in at least one of IRS / listed F+O;

· You have experience in engaging with sell side and buy side clients – this is who you will be talking to on a daily basis;

· You’re relentless with a go-getter attitude, our clients are busy – you will need to capture their attention;

· Driven and motivated to learn, build, deliver and engage with the team;

· You have ambitions to grow and scale a sales team;

· You have never or rarely spoken to PMs at buy / sell side institutions;

· You’re not motivated by targets and take no for an answer.

Progression and compensation:

· Base salary depending on experience between £80,000 and £100,000.
