Accountabilities:

  • Identify, research, and source prospective RIA firms, wealth management organizations, and other relevant financial services partners across the United States.
  • Build and continuously expand a prioritized target account list using prospecting platforms, industry research, referrals, existing resources, and other sourcing channels.
  • Assess prospective partners based on strategic fit, business model, capacity, growth potential, and ability to participate successfully in the program.
  • Own the full sales cycle, including outbound prospecting, qualification, discovery, sales presentations, follow‑up, negotiation, contracting, and partner activation.
  • Conduct proactive outreach through email, phone, LinkedIn, referrals, and other appropriate channels to generate qualified sales opportunities.
  • Lead consultative sales conversations, understand partner needs and economics, communicate the value proposition effectively, address objections, and guide prospects toward mutually beneficial agreements.
  • Negotiate commercial terms in collaboration with internal leadership and ensure opportunities progress efficiently from initial engagement through signed agreement and launch.
  • Coordinate smooth partner handoffs to account management, operations, and other relevant teams following activation.
  • Help develop and refine a scalable business development playbook covering targeting, outreach, qualification, pitching, objection handling, negotiation, and partner activation.
  • Test and improve sales messaging and processes based on market feedback, pipeline performance, and partner conversations.
  • Establish effective processes, tools, reporting, and operating rhythms to maintain an organized and actionable sales pipeline.
  • Develop a strong understanding of the RIA and broader wealth management ecosystem, identifying new market segments, partner profiles, and sourcing opportunities.
  • Build relationships across the financial advisor community and capture market insights that can inform positioning, partner requirements, commercial strategy, and growth initiatives.
  • Work closely with senior leadership on target accounts, pricing, commercial strategy, and partner prioritization.
  • Coordinate with marketing, paid search, operations, and other internal teams to understand partner capacity, support onboarding, and facilitate successful activation.

  • Possess strong executive presence, commercial judgment, consultative selling skills, and relationship‑building capabilities.
  • Be confident leading discovery and sales conversations, handling objections, negotiating commercial terms, and closing agreements.
  • Demonstrate strong organizational skills and disciplined pipeline management, with the ability to manage multiple opportunities and priorities effectively.
  • Be self‑directed, entrepreneurial, and comfortable operating in an early‑stage environment where processes and structures are still being developed.
  • Have a strong interest in helping build a business development function from the ground up and contributing directly to commercial strategy and growth.
  • Possess excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to adapt messaging to different audiences.
  • Experience with Registered Investment Advisors, financial advisors, wealth management, financial services, fintech, financial services partnerships, B2B SaaS, or consultative B2B sales is highly desirable.
  • Direct experience selling to RIAs, financial advisors, wealth management firms, or other sophisticated financial services buyers is a strong advantage.
Benefits:
  • Founding‑stage opportunity with significant ownership over partner acquisition strategy and commercial processes.
  • Opportunity to shape the sales playbook, messaging, targeting, tools, and operating model from the ground up.
  • High‑impact role with direct contribution to revenue growth, partner acquisition, and expansion of financial advisor capacity.
  • Potential to expand into broader commercial or business development leadership responsibilities as the business scales.
  • Opportunity to build relationships across the U.S. financial advisor and wealth management ecosystem.
  • Remote position based in the United States.
  • The source posting does not specify a salary range, bonus structure, healthcare coverage, retirement benefits, paid leave, or other additional benefits.
