About the company
Ripjar was founded by veterans of GCHQ to bring national security-grade intelligence tools to the fight against financial crime. Financial crime funds human trafficking, terrorism, corruption and sanctions evasion on a global scale, and the organisations on the front line need technology built to match the threat.
Today, Ripjar’s AI-native software and data fusion products are used by governments, the world’s largest banks, and global enterprises to automate the detection, investigation and monitoring of serious financial crime. Every day, hundreds of customers and thousands of daily active users rely on the platform to screen hundreds of millions of names for risk in real time, prevent money laundering and stop terrorist financing.
If you want your work to matter, this is where it happens.
What you’ll be doing:
As an Enterprise Account Executive, you’ll own the full sales cycle for our adverse media and sanctions screening solutions. You’ll partner with compliance, risk, and financial crime leaders to help them strengthen their KYC, onboarding, and monitoring processes. You’ll collaborate closely with marketing, product, and pre-sales to drive pipeline growth, manage complex sales cycles, and close strategic deals that move the needle for both our clients and our business.
