The ideal candidate will be a hands-on business builder with strong existing relationships in the US banking, sponsor bank, and fintech ecosystem; the ability to open senior doors; and the commercial discipline to convert market access into qualified pipeline, active pursuits, and signed revenue.

  • Drive the full deal journey for assigned opportunities spanning discovery, qualification, solution framing, pitching, pricing inputs, business case development, stakeholder mapping, procurement support, contracting support, and deal closure
  • Anchor pre-sales engagements in partnership with the sales engineering team to create & deliver demos, POCs, tabletop-exercises, solution workshops, discovery sessions, and other impactful formats that generate traction with clients
  • Support contracting, client onboarding, and early account activation to ensure a clean handoff from signed opportunity to delivery, implementation, and long-term account ownership
  • Participate in events and industry fora to acquire leads, drive visibility, and awareness of Zeta’s offerings & solutions
  • Maintain rigorous deal discipline through accurate CRM hygiene, weekly pipeline reviews, opportunity plans, stakeholder maps, next-step tracking, forecast updates and more
  • Contribute market intelligence, buyer feedback, competitor insights, pricing signals, and product input to help refine Zeta’s proposition, right to play, and right to win in this segment

Key Performance Metrics

  • Establishing Zeta’s right to play as measured by # of senior meetings, # of pre-sales engagements, # of active opportunities, and # of RFP or opportunity participations
  • Establishing Zeta’s right to win in this segment as measured by meaningful contribution to at least 2 USD 7-figure ARR client wins

Experience and Qualifications

  • 15+ years' experience; with at least 5+ years as a partner or sales leader with a proven track record in building a multi-million $ book of business ground up in the US financial services sector

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
