Account Executive - Alternative Data

The Role

We're hiring an Account Executive to drive new client acquisition across hedge funds.

This is a pure hunting role. You will originate pipeline, run deals end-to-end, and close new business for Hatched's alternative data products. You'll work directly with the founders and have real ownership over how we build the US business.

This role suits someone already selling alternative data, or adjacent products, who wants more control, more upside, and a broader remit.

What We Need You To Do

• Build and own pipeline across hedge funds and asset managers
• Run the full sales cycle from first outreach to close
• Lead discovery with PMs, analysts, and data teams
• Position data in terms of investment impact and alpha use cases
• Manage evaluations and client engagement during trials
• Close new business and expand initial relationships
• Feed back into product and research based on client demand

What You Bring to Hatched

• Experience selling alternative data or similar products to the buy side
• Evidence of closing deals and hitting quota
• Strong outbound ability; comfortable building pipeline from scratch
• Credibility with hedge funds; understands research workflows
• Able to run a deal independently with multiple stakeholders
• Clear communicator; can explain data, methodology, and use cases
• High ownership mindset; comfortable working directly with founders

Useful Backgrounds

• Alternative data vendors selling to hedge funds
• Financial data, analytics, or research platforms with buy-side clients

We're open to strong Account Executives or BDRs ready to step up, provided there is clear evidence of deal ownership and commercial drive.

What You Get

• Direct exposure to founders and strategy
• Full ownership of pipeline and clients
• Strong earning potential tied to performance
• Opportunity to shape how we sell in the US
• Small team, high ownership environment

Location

• East Coast US, with a preference for New York
• Regular in-person time with clients expected
