Business Development / Sales Manager, FSI

You take full ownership of your market — not just the pipeline, but the outcomes.

You're naturally curious about how AI is reshaping financial services, you listen before you pitch, and you know that real client impact matters more than hitting a milestone.

If that sounds like how you already work, we'd like to talk.
