What are the responsibilities and job description for the Strategic Account Director position at Delectus Partners?
Strategic Account Director, Series A AI Research Platform
San Francisco or New York | Executive partnerships | Senior package with uncapped upside and equity
Why this role
- The rooms you already sit in, with something new to say. You've spent years advising Managing Partners, CEOs, and Chief Strategy Officers. This role puts you back in front of them with the most consequential shift in their industry: AI as a new operating model for knowledge work.
- Senior comp for a senior seat. A package built for people stepping across from consulting, banking coverage, or executive advisory, not down from it, with uncapped variable and meaningful equity on top.
- Shape an industry, not a territory. The partnerships you originate here decide how the world's leading consulting and investment firms adopt AI. That's a different scale of consequence from a quota patch.
- Proof already on the board. $10m revenue in eighteen months, all founder-led. Series A backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors, next raise building.
- A team you'll recognise. Former leaders from top consultancies, big tech, and global banks, working in person and moving fast.
The company
A Series A AI company building the platform that's transforming how consulting firms, investment firms, and enterprise strategy organisations do research, diligence, and strategic analysis. AI-led expert interviews at scale, analysis turned into decision-ready output, and work that took weeks delivered in days. Not a replacement for consultants and investors: leverage for them.
The job
Build executive relationships that become firm-wide platform adoption.
This isn't a transactional sales seat. You'll engage Managing Partners, CEOs, Practice Leaders, Operating Partners, and Chief Strategy Officers as a peer, identify transformational opportunities, and convert executive trust into long-term strategic partnerships. You'll work directly with company leadership on commercial strategy and market expansion, and represent the business in the rooms where these decisions actually get made.
It is, though, a hunter's job at heart. The relationships don't exist until you create them.
Who does well here
People whose competitive advantage is executive trust. You might come from consulting business development, senior coverage in banking or financial services, executive advisory and research, or private equity origination. What matters is a track record of turning senior relationships into significant commercial outcomes, credibility in complex environments, and genuine curiosity about where AI takes knowledge work. Partner-level presence without partner-level ego.
The package
Senior base salary with uncapped variable and meaningful equity. Full details shared in conversation. Hybrid, minimum three days a week in office.
