Who you are
You have a proven track record in sales, ideally with experience in the financial services sector — you understand the unique needs of Private Equity and Private Credit Funds and can effectively communicate how Carta's solutions can meet those needs. Your ability to build relationships and trust with clients is paramount, as you will be working closely with fund CFOs and other key stakeholders.

You will collaborate closely with the marketing and product teams to align sales strategies with market needs and product capabilities.
Your success will be measured by your ability to meet and exceed sales targets — you will track your progress using CRM tools and provide regular updates to management on your pipeline and forecasts. You will also gather feedback from clients to inform product development and improve service delivery.
