The role We are seeking a Head of BFSI to
originate and grow our Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance business across Canada and the United States. This is a consultative business development leadership role designed for a senior professional who combines deep BFSI domain expertise with strong technology acumen and the ability to build trusted executive relationships.
You will create a pipeline by engaging BFSI executives on their modernization agenda, shaping opportunities into structured offers ( POV/assessment → MVP → scale ), and converting those into multi-year programs. You will partner closely with Sales for commercial execution and with internal practice leaders (Data & AI, Cloud, App Innovation) for solution depth and delivery confidence.
This is not transactional selling. Revenue is generated through credibility, insight,
and advisory-led origination—not volume outreach or RFP chasing.
Why ML arteka? Most senior BFSI leaders don’t lack ideas—they lack room to act.
Room to move faster than RFP cycles and internal red tape. Room to turn executive conversations into funded modernization programs. Room to own outcomes, not activity.
At ML arteka, this role is built for people who think:
"I can build more pipeline if I’m not boxed into bureaucracy."
"BFSI buyers need a modernization partner, not another vendor."
"I want accountability for conversion—assessment → MVP → scale—not just meetings."
"I want to build a durable BFSI portfolio, not manage accounts."
Originate, Don’t Just Network
This isn’t about collecting contacts. It’s about creating demand—shaping modernization triggers into structured offers and multi-year programs.
Operate Like an Owner
You’ll have autonomy to build the BFSI growth motion: target accounts, executive coverage, positioning, and deal shaping—partnering with practices and Sales to make programs defensible and repeatable.
Move Quick, Keep Rigor
BFSI modernization demands speed anddiscipline (risk, compliance, security, resilience). If slow decision cycles frustrate you, you’ll find this environment refreshing and demanding—in the right way.
A Place for Builders
Not for narrow lanes or comfort-first roles. If you want to build a BFSI growth engine and leave a mark, ML arteka is the platform.
Why This Role Exists BFSI enterprises are under unprecedented pressure to modernize:
Core platforms and legacy applications
Data estates and analytics foundations
Risk, compliance, and regulatory capabilities
Cloud and infrastructure operating models
AI adoption across fraud, risk, operations, and customer experience
Despite heavy investment, many initiatives stall due to lack of clarity, fragmented execution, and misalignment between business and technology. Our firm exists to help BFSI organizations modernize with clarity, control, and measurable outcomes. The Head of BFSI will translate this mission into a sustainable, repeatable
growth engine .
Key Responsibilities 1) Consultative Origination & Pipeline Ownership
Own BFSI growth by building pipeline through executive discovery and problem-led conversations.
Develop and maintain a target account plan (named accounts, buying centers, modernization triggers, stakeholder maps).
Identify high-impact BFSI challenges and translate them into structured engagements:
POVs and executive workshops
Assessments and roadmaps
MVPs / pilots
Multi-year modernization programs
Sponsor the progression of clients from assessment → MVP → scale , ensuring opportunities are capability-led and repeatable—not opportunistic.
Act as executive sponsor on strategic deals and long-term programs; partner with Sales on pursuit orchestration and commercial closure.
Maintain pipeline hygiene: stage quality, next steps, close plans, and predict
