We’re rebuilding the institutional analytics stack — and we’re hiring an Accounts Director to accelerate our growth across APAC. Arcana already works with leading institutional clients in APAC. This role will build on that foundation — driving new logo acquisition and expanding our regional footprint across APAC. This is a senior individual contributor role with full quota ownership and no direct reports initially. We are looking for a top-tier enterprise seller who consistently performs at the top of their team and thrives in complex, high-stakes institutional sales cycles. ## Responsibilities - Own new business development across Hong Kong and APAC - Drive full-cycle enterprise sales: sourcing, executive engagement, solution positioning, procurement, and close - Close complex, multi-stakeholder SaaS deals with hedge funds and asset managers - Develop trusted relationships with CIOs, COOs, Heads of Risk, PMs, and senior investment leaders - Expand Arcana’s presence within the APAC institutional ecosystem - Represent Arcana at industry conferences and senior-level meetings - Partner closely with Product and Leadership to translate market feedback into strategic growth ## Requirements - 8–15+ years of enterprise sales experience, ideally selling into hedge funds, asset managers, or institutional allocators - Consistent top performer with a demonstrated record of closing high-value enterprise deals - Proven ability to close high ACV SaaS or financial technology contracts - Deep familiarity with institutional investment workflows (portfolio analytics, attribution, risk, alpha/beta, drawdowns, factor models, etc.) - Strong network within the Hong Kong institutional investment community - Exceptional executive presence and communication skills - Highly autonomous and entrepreneurial — comfortable owning a region and carrying a meaningful quota ## Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree required; MBA, CFA, or similar is a strong plus - Experience selling portfolio analytics platforms, risk systems, OMS/PMS, or market data solutions strongly preferred - Experience operating as a senior regional individual contributor is a strong plus ## Why This Role Is Different - You'll own the region, not just a slice of it. Full P&L and strategic accountability for APAC growth — you decide the playbook, not execute someone else's. - You're not starting from zero. Existing institutional relationships and traction give you a running start most growth roles never offer — momentum to compound, not a market to cold-start. - You'll sit close to the decisions that matter. Direct, regular access to leadership means your read on the market shapes company strategy, not just regional execution. - You'll help define the product, not just sell it. Your frontline insight from the region feeds directly into building the next generation of portfolio intelligence tools — you're shaping what Arcana becomes. ## About Arcana Analytics ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Arcana provides a portfolio intelligence platform that enables institutional investors to analyze risk, decompose performance, and surface alpha through proprietary crowding, ownership, and factor datasets. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series A) - **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States - **Founded**: 2022 - **Founders**: Rich Falk-Wallace (CEO) and Siva Visakan Sooriyan (CTO) ## Core Business - Primary industry/industries: Financial technology (FinTech), investment analytics, risk management - Target customers: Institutional investors – hedge funds, asset managers, and portfolio managers (B2B, Enterprise) - Mission or purpose statement: “Portfolio intelligence for hedge funds and asset managers — analyze risk, decompose performance, and surface alpha.” ## Products & Services - **Risk Model Core**: Sophisticated fundamental equity factor risk models with parsimonious core factors and extensive custom factor library.
