Requirements

Candidates with backgrounds primarily in technical delivery, software engineering, or IT implementation, or those without meaningful software industry exposure, are unlikely to be the right fit.
Deep expertise in the Software and SaaS industry, either through a career at a top tier management consulting firm with a focus on Software & Platforms clients, or through direct experience in strategy, transformation, or commercial roles within software companies.
Strong understanding of how SMB, mid-market, and enterprise customers buy, adopt, and expand software products, alongside a clear point of view on how the industry is evolving.
Comfortable working with ambiguity and have a track record of driving measurable client or business impact.
Proven experience leading complex programmes across the B2B customer lifecycle, from lead generation and sales through to onboarding, adoption, and renewal, with clear evidence of revenue growth, cost reduction, or efficiency improvement delivered
Experience designing future-state processes, customer journeys, and transformation roadmaps, translating strategy into executable change
Evidence of assessing, designing, and deploying end-to-end product strategies that improve customer onboarding, adoption, retention, and growth, while boosting product investment returns and reducing costs
Skilled in value-led delivery: building business cases, tracking outcomes, and managing risk and governance throughout
Strong analytical mindset with the ability to synthesise disparate data sources into clear, actionable insight
Able to construct board-ready business cases that link operational data to commercial outcomes and communicate them persuasively to C-level stakeholders
Experience driving data-driven approaches to product development, lead generation, monetisation, segmentation, and channel strategy to identify growth opportunities and inform investment decisions
Strong understanding of B2B GTM strategy within software or SaaS, including how SMB, mid-market, enterprise, and partner/channel motions require meaningfully different approaches
Clear perspective on how software pricing and commercial models are evolving, from per-seat and subscription toward usage-based, outcome-based, and consumption pricing, and the implications for GTM design and organisational structure
Experience supporting or leading commercial and business model transformation, including how software businesses restructure revenue models, reposition offerings, and realign sales and success motions accordingly
Understanding of how hyperscaler and cloud marketplace dynamics are reshaping B2B software distribution, co-sell motions, and competitive positioning, and experience working across partner and developer ecosystem reinvention
A strong point of view on the forces reshaping the software industry, including the pressures technology companies face to meet evolving customer needs, drive return on product investments, ensure products are secure and resilient, and adapt revenue models, all while navigating AI-native competitors, the shift from assistive to agentic AI, and hyperscaler dynamics
The ability to translate these macro trends into concrete strategic and commercial implications for clients, not just awareness but a credible perspective
Proven ability to build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders, drive alignment through structured thinking and compelling narrative, and deliver transformation across both waterfall and agile environments
Experience managing and developing teams, with a commitment to coaching talent
Entrepreneurial mindset, comfortable taking ownership, shaping outcomes, and driving momentum in ambiguous environments
Strong commercial instinct, with experience contributing to business development and shaping client growth conversations
A career at a top tier management consulting firm with a sustained focus on Software & Platforms clients, or a track record in senior strategy, commercial, or transformation roles within a software or SaaS business
Specific, evidenced experience in B2B Software or SaaS transformation: lead-to-cash redesign, GTM strategy, commercial and business model evolution, or revenue operations, with clear outcomes you can point to
Experience working with SMB-focused software businesses, with a genuine understanding of how SMB buying behaviour, partner and channel dynamics, and digital-first motions differ structurally from enterprise
Hands-on experience with end-to-end product strategy, including designing and deploying approaches that improve adoption, retention, and product investment returns
A credible, well-formed point of view on how agentic AI is reshaping software delivery, competitive dynamics, and the commercial expectations of B2B buyers
