Sales Executive – Index Sales, Real & Private Assets

Location: London or the US

Presentation:

Scientific Infra & Private Assets Ltd (SIPA) is the corporate arm of the EDHEC Infrastructure & Private Assets Research Institute (EIRA) at EDHEC Business School, an ESMA-recognised index provider, specialised in providing market index, benchmarks and comparables to investors in private markets, including unlisted infrastructure equity, private infrastructure debt and private equity. SIPA provides bottom-up, asset-level metrics of the risk and performance of investments in unlisted companies and their debt, as well as advanced measures of the climate impacts and risks of infrastructure assets worldwide.

Today, users of SIPA data include major investors, asset managers and consultants and represent several hundred billion USD of assets under management (AUM).

SIPA is now hiring two product specialists in its commercial team based in London, and one new Sales Executive position based in the US or London.

SIPA is based in Singapore and London.

Role:

This is an opportunity to join a growing and global team that is bringing new and disruptive products to the private asset investment sector with previously unavailable data that tracks the performance and risks of private and real assets (infrastructure).

This role as a new member of a growing sales team is focused on groundbreaking new index data for investors in private equity markets. The focus will be on growing new business in key markets like the US, Europe and Australia, especially amongst asset owners and large asset managers.

Requirements:

The sales executive is expected to have a comprehensive understanding of the customer use cases, especially amongst institutional investors but also wealth managers and family offices. The role requires actively researching leads and opportunities and extensive traveling in the US and worldwide.

The role also requires presenting a technical product (calculated, model-based index) in a market that is not necessarily used to quantitative approaches. The successful candidate will have experience selling advanced data solutions involving a degree of modelling and quantitative approaches e.g. Hedge fund indices.

Compensation is highly dependent on meeting sales targets.

This role is based in the US or London.

This is a full-time, on-going position.

Remuneration is competitive and includes a bonus for meeting performance objectives.

Attractive salary and bonus, healthcare and pension plan coverage.

The salary will be determined according to EDHEC's pay scale, the candidate's qualifications and experience.
