VP of Sales

Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches.

Farsight is partnered with S&P Global and has the opportunity to shape the future of financial services!

Our team comes from Evercore, General Atlantic, Amazon, Hugging Face, founding engineers of other startups, and plenty more!

Farsight has strong product-market fit, real traction at the most demanding institutions in finance, and a distribution partnership with S&P Global that puts us inside the workflow of hundreds of thousands of investment banking and private equity professionals. What we need now is someone to build the sales motion that turns that momentum into a repeatable, scalable revenue machine.

As VP of Sales, you will own Farsight's revenue. You will build and lead the sales team, define the go-to-market motion, and personally close the most strategic deals. You will work directly with our CEO, the Strategy & Ops team, and our GTM team to develop the pipeline, refine the pitch, and bring in the customers that define Farsight's next chapter.

This is a founding sales leadership role. The person who takes this seat will shape how Farsight goes to market, builds its sales culture, and scales from double-digit customers to hundreds.
