Summary

STP Investment Services is seeking a driven and knowledgeable Private Fund Compliance Sales Representative to grow our Compliance and Regulatory Services business, ComplianceAdvisor. This dynamic role offers strong growth potential and uncapped commission, plus a comprehensive benefits package and the opportunity to work in a fast-paced, progressive environment.

The successful candidate will have a proven track record selling outsourced/co-sourced compliance, regulatory, or related professional services to private fund advisers — including private equity firms, hedge funds, venture capital firms, and real estate fund managers. This includes the ability to sell to and credibly engage Chief Compliance Officers, General Counsel, COOs, CFOs, and Managing Partners. A working understanding of the regulatory landscape facing registered and exempt investment advisers is essential — as is the ability to translate regulatory risk and exam exposure into clear business value.

The incumbent must have demonstrated success selling into small and mid-sized investment managers and emerging fund managers across the private fund space. Successful candidates will have exceptional communication, presentation, and team skills, and the ability to run a clear, metric-driven sales process that consistently meets and exceeds targets. Self-motivation and the ability to learn quickly in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment are key to success.

Essential Functions

• Perform extensive lead generation: continually identify and qualify new opportunities by building trusted relationships and maximizing enterprise sales programs, campaigns, and content-driven digital programming
• Manage the entire sales process — from lead identification and opportunity development through presentations, demonstrations, and close
• Deliver a highly consultative sales approach that positions STP's compliance solutions against each prospect's regulatory obligations, exam readiness, and the cost of in-house vs. outsourced compliance
• Be the face of STP in the marketplace through direct sales, consultant/industry relationships, and general industry engagement
• Stay current on regulatory developments, enforcement trends, market activity, and competitors to identify service improvements and new opportunities
• Collaborate with a modern marketing team to drive brand awareness and generate qualified pipeline
