What you’ll be doing
About AlphaSense: The world’s most sophisticated companies rely on AlphaSense to remove uncertainty from decision-making. With market intelligence and search built on proven AI, AlphaSense delivers insights that matter from content you can trust. Our universe of public and private content includes equity research, company filings, event transcripts, expert calls, news, trade journals, and clients’ own research content. The acquisition of Tegus by AlphaSense in 2024 advances our shared mission to empower professionals to make smarter decisions through AI-driven market intelligence. Together, AlphaSense and Tegus will accelerate growth, innovation, and content expansion, with complementary product and content capabilities that enable users to unearth even more comprehensive insights from thousands of content sets. Our platform is trusted by over 6,000 enterprise customers, including a majority of the S&P 500. Founded in 2011, AlphaSense is headquartered in New York City with more than 2,000 employees across the globe and offices in the U.S., U.K., Finland, India, Singapore, Canada, and Ireland. Come join us! The Opportunity We are looking for an exceptional VP of Strategic Partnerships to build what we believe can become one of AlphaSense’s most important growth engines. This is not a traditional alliances role. We are building deep, strategic relationships with some of the world’s most influential consulting, advisory, and technology organizations that have the potential to fundamentally expand how AlphaSense reaches customers, solves complex business problems, and becomes embedded in enterprise transformation. The opportunity is enormous, but the playbook is not yet written. Your job is to write it. You will determine where AlphaSense and our partners can create unique value together, build trusted relationships with senior leaders across industries and functions, develop the commercial models that turn those relationships into revenue, and mobilize both organizations to execute. You will need to be equally comfortable developing strategy in the boardroom and turning it into action in the field. For the right person, this is an opportunity to build a function from the ground up and potentially create a nine-figure revenue channel for one of the fastest-growing companies in enterprise AI. Who You Are We are looking for an unusually strong combination of strategy, partnerships, commercial judgment, and executive presence. You started your career in top-tier strategy consulting. Experience at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, or a comparable strategy consulting firm is important. You know how to quickly understand complex industries and business problems, structure ambiguous opportunities, and communicate a compelling point of view to senior executives. You have subsequently led strategic partnerships. You have meaningful experience building and scaling a Partnerships, Alliances, or Business Development function within a high-growth enterprise software or technology company. You understand how to move from a senior-level relationship to a repeatable commercial motion. You have exceptional intellectual horsepower and judgment. A partnership with a global organization like Accenture can take dozens of different forms across industries, practices, regions, and customer problems. You can quickly determine where AlphaSense belongs, where we don't, and where an opportunity could become enormous. You are an exceptional communicator. You can walk into a room with the most senior partners at a global consulting firm, understand their world quickly, and tell the AlphaSense story in a way that is relevant, crisp, credible, and compelling. You are commercial. You don't measure success by the number of partnerships signed. You measure it by customer impact, adoption, pipeline, revenue, and durable strategic value. Direct Sales or Sales leadership experience is a significant plus. You are a builder. You don't need a mature organization, established playbook, or large team around you. You are energized by creating those things. And you lead through influence. You know how to mobilize Sales, Product, Marketing, Legal, and executive leadership around opportunities that don't fit neatly within one organization. What You'll Build Create the strategy. Define where strategic partnerships can create the greatest commercial and strategic advantage for AlphaSense and focus the organization relentlessly on the highest-value opportunities.
