- Position Overview:
- Own new-business growth for the PCM valuation platform — selling enterprise
- valuation technology to private markets managers who run, or want to run, their
valuation processes on a modern platform. This is an enterprise-software sales

- Sell to valuation teams, CFOs/COOs, heads of portfolio management and
- technology buyers at private equity and private credit GPs.
- Translate how valuations are actually run — across credit and equity — into a
- platform value proposition: speed, transparency, data as an output, and
- scalability.
- Partner with product, product marketing and solutions/pre-sales to tailor
- demos and proofs-of-concept to each buyer’s workflow.
- Coordinate with advisory MDs where a platform sale opens, or is opened by, an
- advisory relationship — and feed qualified advisory leads back to them.
- Manage pipeline and forecast with discipline in CRM (Salesforce).
- Requirements:
- A track record in enterprise software sales — ideally fintech or
- financial-technology platforms — carrying and hitting an ARR quota through
- complex sales cycles.
- Genuine understanding of how valuations are run in credit and in equity —
- enough to hold a credible, detailed conversation with a valuation team.
- Strong knowledge of the private equity and private credit GP landscape — the
- players, how they operate, and how they buy.
- Experience managing multi-stakeholder software cycles involving business,
- technical and procurement buyers.
- Consultative, domain-credible selling style; disciplined with pipeline,
- forecasting and CRM.
