Responsibilities
Diligent Market Intelligence (DMI) is a global provider of governance, shareholder, and market intelligence data delivered through SaaS platforms, data feeds, and analytics solutions. As part of Diligent, a leading Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) technology company, DMI provides decision-grade intelligence that helps asset managers, investment banks, law firms, and advisors anticipate risk, engage shareholders, and make informed strategic decisions.
We sell primarily to senior stakeholders across stewardship teams, partners at law firms, investment banking M&A advisory teams, corporate advisors, executive compensation specialists, and corporate governance leaders who rely on high-quality intelligence to navigate complex shareholder, governance, and market dynamics.
Our solutions support critical workflows including activism defense, shareholder engagement, corporate governance benchmarking, proxy voting analysis, reporting, executive compensation evaluation, and emerging stewardship data capabilities. These insights are delivered through subscription platforms, data feeds, and advanced analytics workflows.
This role is positioned at the center of DMI’s next phase of commercial growth. You will play a critical role in accelerating adoption of our evolving intelligence platform, including new stewardship-focused data initiatives while deepening relationships across DMI’s current clients and market segment.
As a Strategic Account Executive, you will drive revenue growth across new and existing accounts by positioning DMI’s intelligence solutions as strategic decision tools. This role requires strong consultative selling skills, commercial discipline, and the ability to translate complex data capabilities into measurable business value for sophisticated, senior-level buyers.
