This is an opportunity to drive growth within a fast-expanding venture capital market by bringing innovative financial technology and fund administration solutions to upper mid-market and institutional VC firms. In this role, you will own the full sales cycle, from building your own pipeline to negotiating complex, multi-stakeholder agreements. You will develop trusted relationships with General Partners, CFOs, COOs, and other senior decision-makers, acting as a long-term advisor rather than simply a seller. Combining consultative selling, industry expertise, and practical AI fluency, you will help clients modernize their operations and make better-informed decisions. Working closely with cross-functional teams, you will contribute to a collaborative, ambitious, and digitally enabled sales environment while helping shape the future of private markets.
Accountabilities

Identify and engage key decision-makers, including General Partners, CFOs, COOs, and Heads of Finance and Operations. Collaborate with Sales Development teams to generate opportunities and refine territory strategies based on performance and fund cycle timing. Develop relationships across the broader venture capital ecosystem, including accounting firms, banks, law firms, and fund advisors. Represent the business at relevant industry events, both in person and virtually. Lead consultative discovery sessions and develop compelling business cases covering SaaS technology and fund administration solutions. Manage complex, consensus-driven sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders, anticipate objections, and address concerns related to security, transitions, and data migration. Maintain accurate sales forecasts and consistently achieve or exceed revenue targets. Establish lasting relationships with GPs and finance leaders, supporting customer success beyond the initial sale. Work closely with Fund Solutions, Customer Success, Sales Development, and Solutions Engineering to deliver a coordinated customer experience. Demonstrate expertise in venture capital fund workflows, including capital calls, distributions, LP reporting, and fund administration operations. Position AI-powered capabilities as a meaningful competitive advantage and integrate AI tools into daily sales activities, including account research, call preparation, deal strategy, and communication. Lead executive-level discussions with credibility and preparation, while sharing market insights and contributing to the continuous improvement of the sales strategy.
Requirements
At least 7 years of full-cycle, quota-carrying B2B sales experience, or at least 6 years of fund accounting or fund operations experience with exposure to the venture capital industry. Proven ability to independently generate and develop a sales pipeline without relying primarily on inbound leads or SDR support. Practical AI fluency, including active use of AI tools in daily workflows and the ability to communicate their value credibly to sophisticated buyers. Demonstrated success building trusted, long-term relationships that extend beyond the completion of a sale. Strong executive presence and confidence presenting to senior stakeholders, both verbally and in writing. Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage complex sales processes involving multiple projects and stakeholders. High levels of integrity, professionalism, and ethical judgment. Experience selling fund administration services, FinTech solutions, SaaS products, or other relevant technology and financial services is preferred. Direct experience working within or selling to the venture capital, General Partner, or Limited Partner ecosystem is an advantage. Previous experience entering and developing new markets is a plus. Familiarity with sales platforms such as Salesforce, Outreach, and Gong is beneficial.
