Head of Commercial Strategy, North America

Why This Role Is Important to Us

We are looking for a Head of Commercial Strategy to support our rapidly growing Americas business unit. Americas — and North America in particular — represents the largest growth market for SimCorp and is mission-critical to our ambition to lead the buy-side investment management solutions industry. In this role, you will partner closely with the regional Head of Americas to craft a market-leading commercial strategy for our buy-side target markets, spanning market positioning, sales enablement, pricing strategy, and organizational design.

What You Will Be Responsible For

• Guide senior management in understanding and translating market opportunities into SimCorp's corporate vision and strategy
• Contribute strategic insights on industry innovation and trends, including navigating the competitive landscape
• Run strategic deep-dives on core subject areas, engaging the wider organization and leveraging your industry knowledge and perspective
• Prepare C-suite reports on market dynamics, positioning, and intelligence on the competitive landscape
• Contribute to thought leadership pieces in our industry that impact SimCorp's clients and community

What We Value

• 7+ years of experience within the investment management function of an Asset Manager or a buy-side consultancy organization
• A strong understanding of the full value chain of an Asset Management organization, its drivers, and market landscape development
• Insight into the software landscape for investment management and the macro-trends shaping the future of the industry
• Experience with commercial strategy, sales enablement, and commercial execution
• Experience across the buy-side vendor system landscape is preferred, but not essential
• An empathetic approach, and a person who thrives working closely with people
• The ability to work on-site at our office in NYC at least 2 days per week

Benefits

• A attractive salary and bonus scheme
• A good work and life balance: flexible working hours and a hybrid model — working from SimCorp's office two days a week
• Opportunities for professional development: there is never only one route — we offer a personal approach to professional development to support the direction you want to take
