We deliver privacy-compliant, real-time intelligence on consumer spending across markets, helping clients make faster, smarter decisions with confidence. Our merchant-level benchmarks and differentiated datasets provide a true edgeβ€”and our commercial team is at the center of bringing that value to market.

About the Role

Consumer Edge is seeking a high-performing Business Development Manager to drive new logo growth across financial services accounts (investors using alternative data within hedge funds, asset managers, family offices, etc) in the North American region (NAMER). This is a strategic hunting role for a seller who knows how to build a market, prioritize a book of target accounts, create a robust pipeline through direct outreach, and convert opportunities into profitable, long-term client relationships.

This person will be exceptional at strategic account planning, with a keen understanding of the competitive landscape and our products.Β  They will use a structured approach to segment and prioritize prospects, map buying committees, identify triggers, and focus time on the highest-value opportunities. They will be highly effective at outbound prospecting, consistently securing meetings through their own efforts while also partnering closely with SDRs and Marketing to maximize campaign, event, and nurture-driven pipelines.

Success in this role requires strong commercial judgment, a proactive operating cadence, and best-in-class sales execution across storytelling, discovery, negotiation, and closing. As the latest NAMER hire, this individual will play a critical role in shaping our regional growth strategy and establishing Consumer Edge as a trusted partner to the investment community as we further scale in both $1B+ investors and the long tail of investors below $1B and across new investor types in Family Offices and other firm types.
