About Fathom

Fathom is a leader in the climate and flood risk intelligence space. Working at the forefront of climate data and analysis. Our data is used by leaders in engineering, international development, finance, government, insurance and NGOs. This is an exciting time to work within the ever-changing, fast-paced climate risk space. We're looking for a Sales Administration and Support Executive to support our opportunity identification and development activities in the Engineering & Public Sector sectors.


Fathom recently joined the Swiss Re group, furthering its vision of becoming the gold standard in the provision of flood risk intelligence.

About the role

The main purpose of this role is to support existing sales teams from an account-based prospecting, development and administrative angle across global and US engineering consultancies and US public sector organisations.
