Senior Sales Executive UK
Enterprise Data Subscription Management London EMEA
Reports to: Head of International Sales
THE OPPORTUNITY
For most financial institutions data subscription spend market data research and information services is the second or third largest cost line. It is also among the least visible and least disciplined. Budgets get built on last years number not this years actual usage. Contracts renew on autopilot. And the executives who own the P&L rarely see the full picture until costs spike or an audit forces the issue.
That gap is the opportunity. We are looking for a Senior Sales Executive who can walk into a CFOs or COOs office and reframe a cost center theyve stopped questioning into a strategic lever they can control. This is not a feature-and-function sale. Its a transformational consultative sale built on a documented business case a quantified cost of inaction and a clear line from TRGs platform to the executives own P&L targets.
Youll own a defined territory and a full pipeline of opportunities from first touch to signature. This is primarily a hunters game the majority of your book will be net-new logos you open yourself but youll also inherit access into a set of existing accounts giving you a running start to build trust find the next use case and expand. Success here requires someone who can be creative in how they open doors persistent in how they navigate long multi-stakeholder sales cycles and resilient when deals stall on procurement legacy build-vs-buy debates or internal politics. Just as important: the ability to compress the cycle to find the compelling event build urgency and keep a deal moving instead of letting it drift. The reps who thrive in this role are the ones who treat a stalled deal as a puzzle to solve not a reason to move on.
THE ROLE
TRG Screen is seeking a highly motivated consultative Senior Sales Executive to drive new business revenue. This is fundamentally a hunter role proactive outreach creative account penetration and self-generated pipeline are the core of the job with the added advantage of inherited access into a set of existing accounts to jump-start relationship-building and expansion. You will sell TRGs SaaS technology solutions with the opportunity to cross-sell managed services and strategic outsourcing to decision-makers within financial institutions banks asset managers hedge funds broker-dealers pension funds and more.
Ideal candidates bring a proven record of value-selling and business-case selling to senior finance and operations executives strong knowledge of financial markets and especially market data and the ability to run a disciplined self-sufficient sales process. Youll collaborate closely with marketing solutions consulting product management and executive leadership to build and defend the business case at every stage. If you are driven resourceful and energized by driving change inside large change-resistant organizations we want to hear from you.
