• Sales Strategy: Develop and execute a regional sales plan that aligns with Macrobond’s global strategy. Leverage market intelligence to identify opportunities in specific sectors, regions, or themes that align with Macrobond’s data offerings.
• Solution Selling: Understand client challenges and requirements to offer tailored solutions using Macrobond’s data products, including API integrations and automated workflows. Provide demonstrations, proof-of-concepts, and support in closing deals.
• Collaboration: Work alongside the marketing, product, and research teams to ensure clients have access to Macrobond’s chart packs, thematic analysis, and weekly market insights

Required Qualifications and Experience

What You’ll Bring

• Driven and self‑motivated and the desire to work in a high‑performance culture with continual development
• An ability to define and communicate a compelling value proposition
• Experience selling within a complex sales cycle preferred over transactional sales experience
• Desire to learn and personally demo the Macrobond platform to prospects, and build existing knowledge of macroeconomics and financial markets
• An excellent long‑term relationship builder, with the ability to initiate and sustain relationships with large, medium, and small sized prospective customers.
