Job Description
AlphaSense is hiring an Account Executive for new business, focused on expanding its customer roster in Ireland and across Europe. The role sells the company's GenAI-driven market intelligence software to firms on both the buy side and sell side of finance, including banks focused on investment work, asset managers, hedge funds and brokerages, as well as private equity houses and venture capital groups.
AlphaSense offers AI-based search and market intelligence drawn from public and private content, including analyst research, filings, expert interviews and news. The company says more than 6,000 enterprise customers use the platform, including most of the S&P 500. It was founded in 2011, has its main office in New York City, has more than 2,000 employees, and acquired Tegus in 2024.
The account executive builds a territory strategy aimed at new financial services clients, creates opportunities through targeted prospecting, and leads a consultative process from discovery to close.

The seller works with product specialists on tailored demos and trials, partners with marketing to generate demand in the territory, and shares client feedback and market insight with product staff, content teams and go-to-market leads.
The posting looks for a proven seller with real experience selling SaaS or investment technology, preferably to financial institutions.
