• Familiarity with account-based marketing or selling strategies and sales intelligence platforms.
• Experience using automation or AI-assisted tools to improve research and prospect engagement.

How Success Is Measured

You'll own monthly targets for qualified meetings and pipeline, and we measure quality as well as volume.

What We'll Provide

• Structured onboarding and training in Nasdaq FinTech solutions and APAC market dynamics.
