About Dedale:

Dedale is the differentiating source of strategic intelligence in the technology space.

With a unique team of over 100 full-time research analysts & planners, Dedale leverages a network of over 10 000 market professionals to deliver on the ground strategic intelligence to investors and corporates, with a core focus around North America and Europe. 

Our team gathers top talents with diverse and international backgrounds. Our Research & Investment team has the strongest expertise in the ecosystem on B2B Software due diligence, and we are surrounded by a network of mentors including high-profile tech founders and investors.

 

Our Culture:

Dedale gathers a group of highly talented international individuals (incl. US, Chinese, Filipino, French, Moroccan, Latvian, Lebanese nationalities among others).

The leadership team is composed of experienced investment professionals & management consultants (ex-McKinsey, BCG consultants & managers).

Our advisory board is extremely high profile, including some of the most successful investors worldwide (incl. Managing Partners of the largest PE and Growth Equity funds, and Tech unicorn entrepreneurs).

We seek to develop a dream team of outstanding investment analysts with strong academic and professional achievements and a passion for investing and technology.

  

Your Opportunity:

Our Growth team plays a pivotal role in ensuring customer retention and driving expansion, contributing significantly to the success of our clients globally.

In this role, you will be responsible for growing revenue across Dedale’s full product portfolio - including our intelligence platform and advisory services - by maintaining high customer retention rates, proactively identifying and acting on expansion opportunities, and managing upsell, upgrade, and cross-sell initiatives throughout the customer journey.

  • Onboarding & Adoption: Lead onboarding sessions with authority and product fluency. You will "embark" users and motivate product adoption by projecting the seniority and credibility required for the PE/M&A space.

  • End-to-End Renewal Ownership: Own the entire renewal cycle - from early risk detection and churn prevention (orchestrating AM and CS resources) to the final commercial negotiation.

  • Strategic Growth & Upselling: Conduct regular strategic check-ins (bi-monthly/quarterly) to uncover "second-level" needs that convert into advisory mandates or platform upsells.

  • Revenue Execution: Drive expansion efforts through a solution-focused approach, identifying cross-sell and up-sell opportunities across the account lifecycle.

  • Account Strategy: Design and execute account-level growth strategies, utilizing data analysis to forecast trends and identify white space for the Sales team.

  • Internal Advocacy: Act as the voice of the customer, working cross-functionally to ensure product updates and features align with the sophisticated needs of our client base. 

Your Profile:

  • Around or over 3-5 years of experience in account management, inside sales, customer success, or similar fields in Financial or Consulting Services, Intelligence, and/or Entreprise Saas Product.

  • Proven expertise in consultative/value selling and navigating complex, full-cycle sales processes, with a preference for end-to-end sales expertise.

  • Skilled at building rapport, cultivating trust, and maintaining strong relationships with diverse client bases.

  • Demonstrated success in consistently achieving or surpassing performance objectives.

  • Adept at leveraging data analysis to identify opportunities and forecast growth trends effectively.
