You’ve sold into capital markets, you understand data flows in complex financial environments, and you know the difference between selling software — and delivering transformation.

We’re looking for a Sales Director to help us lead the charge in how the world’s top financial institutions think about control, automation, and data confidence. This is a hands-on, high-impact role focused on bringing our real-time data integrity platform to the desks of decision-makers across the sell-side and buy-side.

We’re not another fintech scale-up looking for flash. We're a proven, product-first technology business solving real, painful problems around reconciliation, data quality, and operational risk.

Who You’ll Be Talking To

Our client base includes:

  • Global investment banks and custodians
  • Asset managers and hedge funds
  • Clearing houses and financial infrastructure providers

You’ll be speaking with COOs, Heads of Ops, Risk, Data and Finance, and you’ll be trusted to run credible conversations with people who expect depth — not buzzwords.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Driving new logo acquisition across the UK and European markets
  • Managing end-to-end complex sales cycles with multiple stakeholders
  • Understanding client workflows and identifying high-value automation use cases
  • Building strong, long-term relationships with operations, risk, and data leaders
  • Partnering with pre-sales, delivery, and leadership to ensure seamless transitions from pitch to onboarding

This role reports into the global commercial team and gives you autonomy, visibility, and room to shape your territory.

What You Bring

  • A strong background in selling enterprise software into capital markets (buy-side or sell-side)
  • At least 5–7 years of successful direct sales experience, ideally within regtech, reconciliation, post-trade, or data automation
  • A consultative sales style — you can ask the right questions, map value, and close with purpose
  • Ability to manage a pipeline from discovery to contract
  • A clear personal track record of consistently meeting/exceeding targets

What Makes This Different

You won’t be shoehorned into an over-segmented team or chasing leads with no weight behind them.

This is a role for someone who wants to own their patch, back a strong product, and work with smart people who actually understand this industry.

No drama, no buzzword bingo. Just meaningful sales work with clients who matter.

  • Performance-based bonus
  • Hybrid working from central London HQ
  • Transparent career path in a growing global business
  • Flat structure, direct access to leadership, and zero fluff

Interested? Let’s talk.

This is the kind of role that doesn’t show up every week — and it’s for someone who knows exactly what they’re looking for next.

Seasonal Hiring Peaks for Data Science Jobs: The Best Months to Apply & Why

The UK's data science sector has matured into one of Europe's most intellectually rewarding and financially attractive technology markets, with roles spanning from junior data analysts to principal data scientists and heads of artificial intelligence. With data science positions commanding salaries from £30,000 for graduate data analysts to £140,000+ for senior principal scientists, understanding when organisations actively recruit can dramatically accelerate your career progression in this intellectually stimulating and rapidly evolving field. Unlike traditional analytical roles, data science hiring follows distinct patterns influenced by business intelligence cycles, research funding schedules, and machine learning project timelines. The sector's unique combination of mathematical rigour, business impact requirements, and cutting-edge technology adoption creates predictable hiring windows that strategic professionals can leverage to advance their careers in extracting insights from tomorrow's data. This comprehensive guide explores the optimal timing for data science job applications in the UK, examining how enterprise analytics strategies, academic research cycles, and artificial intelligence initiatives influence recruitment patterns, and why strategic timing can determine whether you join a pioneering AI research team or miss the opportunity to develop the next generation of intelligent systems.

Pre-Employment Checks for Data Science Jobs: DBS, References & Right-to-Work and more Explained

Pre-employment screening in data science reflects the discipline's unique position at the intersection of statistical analysis, machine learning innovation, and strategic business intelligence. Data scientists often have privileged access to comprehensive datasets, proprietary algorithms, and business-critical insights that form the foundation of organisational strategy and competitive positioning. The data science industry operates within complex regulatory frameworks spanning GDPR, sector-specific data protection requirements, and emerging AI governance regulations. Data scientists must demonstrate not only technical competence in statistical modelling and machine learning but also deep understanding of research ethics, data privacy principles, and the societal implications of algorithmic decision-making. Modern data science roles frequently involve analysing personally identifiable information, financial data, healthcare records, and sensitive business intelligence across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks simultaneously. The combination of analytical privilege, predictive capabilities, and strategic influence makes thorough candidate verification essential for maintaining compliance, security, and public trust in data-driven insights and automated systems.

Why Now Is the Perfect Time to Launch Your Career in Data Science: The UK's Analytics Revolution

The United Kingdom stands at the forefront of a data science revolution that's reshaping how businesses make decisions, governments craft policies, and society tackles its greatest challenges. From the machine learning algorithms powering London's fintech innovation to the predictive models guiding Manchester's smart city initiatives, Britain's transformation into a data-driven economy has created an unprecedented demand for skilled data scientists that far outstrips the available talent. If you've been contemplating a career transition or seeking to position yourself at the cutting edge of the digital economy, data science represents one of the most intellectually stimulating, financially rewarding, and socially impactful career paths available today. The convergence of big data maturation, artificial intelligence mainstream adoption, business intelligence evolution, and cross-industry digital transformation has created the perfect conditions for data science career success.
