Role Summary

The Senior Director, Hedge Funds & Quant Go-To-Market owns the multi-year ASV growth strategy and commercial execution for the Hedge Funds & Quant firm type. This leader is accountable for the segment’s ASV growth trajectory without carrying the sales quota or owning the product roadmap. The role also serves as the executive owner of Hedge Funds & Quant commercialization, messaging, and market positioning across the firm. The role is responsible for translating FactSet's product and AI capabilities into a compelling Hedge Funds & Quant value proposition, commercial strategy, market narrative, and GTM playbooks, while ensuring that client and field intelligence is consistently channeled back into product and strategy decisions. As a global role, the leader will adapt strategy, messaging, and execution playbooks to reflect the distinct needs and dynamics of hedge fund and quant clients across regions.

Success is measured by the strength and effectiveness of the go-to-market model the leader designs, aligns, and executes, and by the business outcomes it delivers for the Hedge Funds & Quant segment, rather than by individual revenue attainment.
