GTM Recruiting Services for B2B SaaS

I recruit sales, marketing, RevOps, and GTM leadership hires for B2B SaaS founders and go-to-market leaders, from defining the role to closing the offer. My focus is narrow by design. I work with early and growth-stage B2B SaaS companies, I understand SaaS unit economics and what each stage needs to scale, and I find people who can actually do the work, not just fill seats.

What's included

Full-Cycle Recruiting Partnership

I handle every aspect of hiring your next team member, from defining the role to closing your chosen candidate.

Strategic Role Definition

Before I source a single candidate, I work with you to clarify exactly what type of person you need. Starting from my hiring framework and adapting it to your situation, I help you decide whether you need a strategic leader, a player-coach, or a specialized executor, and make sure the role fits your current stage, budget, and growth goals.

Targeted Sourcing & Screening

I tap into my network of SaaS sales, marketing, and RevOps people and actively source candidates who aren't posting resumes online. Every candidate is pre-screened through the lens of "Can this person drive measurable growth for this specific company?" You only meet people who've cleared my bar.

Deep Candidate Validation

I go beyond credentials to understand what candidates have actually built, from the revenue they've owned to the business models and tools they know. You'll see exactly how I evaluate GTM candidates just below.

Process Management

I coordinate interviews, gather feedback, maintain momentum, and keep everyone aligned. You focus on evaluating fit, and I handle the logistics and timeline management.

Offer Negotiation & Closing

I help you navigate compensation discussions, equity structures, and counteroffer situations so you secure your top choice without overpaying or losing candidates to competing offers.

Post-Placement Support

The partnership doesn't end at the offer letter. I provide a 90-day placement guarantee and check in during onboarding to make sure your new hire is set up for success.

How I evaluate GTM candidates

I go beyond credentials to understand what candidates have actually built. Every sales, marketing, and RevOps candidate is evaluated on four things.

01

Revenue, not just activity

Have they been accountable for revenue metrics, or only for activity metrics like calls, emails, and MQLs?

02

Your business model

Do they understand how your company sells, whether that's PLG or sales-led, SMB or enterprise?

03

Strategy and execution

Can they think strategically while still executing hands-on, which is what early and growth-stage teams need?

04

The technical side

Do they know the tracking, automation, and data analysis that modern GTM work runs on?

Common questions

How do your fees work?

Essential Search is pure contingency (you only pay when I successfully place someone). Premium Search includes a small engagement fee plus contingency. Team Building Partnership operates on a quarterly retainer model.

Which level fits a first sales or marketing hire?

Usually Premium Search. It's built for first department hires and senior roles where the stakes are high, and it starts with a strategic role definition session so you're clear on who you need before I source anyone.

How long does a search take?

Essential Search typically takes 30-45 days and Premium Search 45-60 days. Team Building Partnership clients typically see 25-35 days per role because I build the pipeline ahead of time.

What happens in the strategic role definition session?

Before I start sourcing, I work with you to clarify exactly what type of person you need, whether that's a strategic leader, player-coach, or specialized executor, and make sure the role fits your stage, budget, and growth goals. It starts from my hiring framework, adapted to your situation.

What if the hire doesn't work out?

Every placement comes with a 90-day guarantee. Days 0-30: Full refund or replacement search at no additional fee. Days 31-60: 66% refund or replacement search at no additional fee. Days 61-90: 33% refund or replacement search at no additional fee.
