Position Overview

Borealis Global Analytics is seeking an experienced, highly connected Strategic Chief Revenue Officer to lead institutional commercial growth for our factor investing, macroeconomic, and analytics solutions. This role is focused on building trusted relationships with senior decision-makers across the institutional investment ecosystem, including asset managers, index providers, ETF issuers, data vendors, wealth platforms, consultants, and research organizations.

The ideal candidate combines deep institutional market relationships with commercial acumen and subject matter expertise in factor investing, equities, index construction, and portfolio research. This individual will not simply originate introductions, but also play a role in the sales process—helping position Borealis’ solutions, shape conversations, build credibility with sophisticated buyers, and guide opportunities through partnership, licensing, or enterprise sales discussions. Closing sales does not fall entirely on this role.

This role is especially well suited to an accomplished executive, senior commercial leader, institutional relationship manager, or former industry professional seeking an intellectually engaging opportunity with meaningful strategic impact. While the role is listed in the New York metropolitan area for visibility purposes, Borealis is open to exceptional candidates globally and welcomes applicants with strong institutional networks across international markets.
