For over 50 years, we have worked closely with investment and asset managers to become the world’s leading provider of integrated investment management solutions. We are 2,800+ colleagues with a broad range of nationalities, educations, professional experiences, ages, and backgrounds in general.
SimCorp is an independent subsidiary of the Deutsche Börse Group. Following the recent merger with Axioma, we leverage the combined strength of our brands to provide an industry-leading, full, front-to-back offering for our clients, with SimCorp as the overarching company brand and Axioma as a key product brand.
SimCorp is an equal-opportunity employer. We are committed to building a culture where diverse perspectives and expertise are integrated into our everyday work. We believe in the continual growth and development of our employees, so that we can provide best-in-class solutions to our clients.
Why this role is important to us:
The Business Development Representative (BDR) reports to the EMEA Head of Axioma Sales and is a key driver of our growth in the region. This role provides an opportunity to build deep expertise in our Axioma solutions while mastering high‑impact sales skills.
You will work closely with Sales, Pre‑Sales, and Marketing, taking ownership of engaging target accounts to generate early‑stage pipeline. Success in this role relies on drive, intellectual curiosity, and a genuine interest in financial markets. High performers will have a clear path toward becoming a Sales Manager.

Develop, refine, and experiment with outreach scripts and approaches to improve effectiveness.
Screen, qualify, and nurture inbound marketing leads using SimCorp’s sales best practices.
Follow up on inbound enquiries to determine whether a business opportunity exists.
Drive attendance for Axioma events and promotional activities, ensuring engagement from prospective clients.
Conduct research to identify new contacts, build account intelligence, and update CRM data in Salesforce.
Log all interactions comprehensively in Salesforce and leverage reports to manage your pipeline.
Maintain uptodate knowledge of Axioma’s offering, industry trends, and competitor landscape, with an active interest in how asset managers use risk and portfolio analytics.
You contribute to the team work by:
Partnering closely with Sales and Marketing to ensure a consistent and highimpact message across all touchpoints.

Learn and apply SimCorp’s and Axioma’s sales concepts and solution knowledge with discipline and enthusiasm.
Understand complex solution selling and adopt a consultative, insightled approach.
Make a high volume of intelligent, personalised outreach to engage senior stakeholders.

Use Salesforce effectively to manage your work and maintain data quality.
Be proficient with productivity tools (Excel, Outlook, Word, PowerPoint).
What we value
Most importantly, you can see yourself thriving in the role described above. How you gained your skills matters less than your motivation, curiosity, and desire to learn fast. We expect you to be great at several of the following and motivated to learn the rest:
Relevant experience (2–5 years) in a similar role within capital markets, financial technology, or software.
A basic understanding of capital markets, investment operations, or portfolio management — or a strong interest and willingness to learn.

Fluency in English; another European language is advantageous.
Highenergy approach to outreach and pipeline generation.
