Sales Specialist (Real-Time, Pricing & Reference Data)
We’re hiring a Sales Specialist to help us grow our Real-Time and Pricing & Reference Services business across North America. At its core, this role is about winning new business. You’ll be focused on bringing in new logos, building pipeline from scratch when needed, and turning interest into long-term client relationships.
