In Europe, the business is led by Séverine Grégoire, CEO Europe , former member of CMA CGM’s Executive Committee, where she led innovation and artificial intelligence initiatives. We are looking for an exceptional Late Founder / CEO North America to build VistIQ across the US. This is not a traditional regional CEO or Head of Sales role. This is a zero-to-one entrepreneurial opportunity. You will own the North American business — from strategy and go-to-market to customers, partnerships, product influence, team building and P&L. What you will do Build and execute VistIQ’s North American go-to-market strategy. Personally originate and close flagship US customers across Private Equity, Venture & Growth, Private Debt, Asset Management and Family Offices.

Who we are looking for We are looking for a rare combination of private markets credibility (required), enterprise technology experience, founder DNA and an AI-native way of working . You ideally have: 10+ years of relevant experience across enterprise software, AI, data, fintech and/or private markets. A strong network across Private Equity, Venture & Growth, Private Debt, Asset Management or Family Offices in the US. A proven track record selling sophisticated enterprise software, data, AI or infrastructure solutions to investment organizations. Experience personally originating and closing complex, high-value strategic accounts. A strong understanding of investment workflows and how institutional investors operate. You are an AI power user . AI is already embedded in how you sell, research, analyze, prepare, communicate and operate every day. You actively leverage the latest models, agents and AI tools to multiply your own output and operate with exceptional speed and a lean team . You don’t just talk about AI — you work AI-native. Experience building a company, geography, business unit or market from an early stage. Most importantly: you are an operator We are not looking for someone who needs an established organization, a large sales team or a fully built playbook to succeed. We are looking for a hands-on builder and doer . You open doors yourself. You run the meetings. You build the relationships. You close the first customers. You work directly with product. You solve problems. You recruit the first team. You are equally comfortable discussing strategy with the CIO of a major investment firm and rolling up your sleeves to get things done yourself . You don’t wait for the organization. You build it. Why VistIQ? Private markets are entering a fundamental technology transition. AI will transform how investment firms access institutional knowledge, analyze opportunities, monitor portfolios, collaborate and make decisions. But institutional AI requires more than an LLM. It requires trusted proprietary data, persistent memory, security, governance, source traceability, auditability and specialized AI agents operating within investment workflows. This role comes with significant equity, genuine autonomy and direct influence over strategy, product, go-to-market, organization and culture. We are looking for someone who could credibly start their own company, but sees building VistIQ North America as an even more compelling entrepreneurial opportunity. This is not a corporate CEO job. It is a late-founder role for an exceptional operator who wants to build a category-defining company at the intersection of AI and private markets. #J-18808-Ljbffr VistIQ.ai
