You will actively gather and translate market, regulatory, and customer feedback to inform product innovation and development. Providing internal enablement and training on sector workflows, industry use cases, market and regulatory trends, and corporate buying considerations is also a key part of this role. You will support and run industry thought leadership events, including speaking engagements at conferences.
