• Understand client needs in depth and articulate how our analytics platform delivers meaningful value across investment workflows.
• Collaborate closely with internal teams (Product, Marketing, Research, Client Service) to ensure a seamless client experience, answer detailed enquiries about Scientific Portfolio’s methodologies and support long-term client engagement.
• Represent the company at industry conferences, client meetings, and thought leadership events.
• Share market intelligence and client feedback to inform product development and commercial strategy.

What We're Looking For
