Own the Accounting Services vertical and overall performance from soup to nuts, including quota target tied to team performance
- →
Run growth experiments: new acquisition channels, content-led approaches, partnership motions, event strategies. Measure honestly and document learnings.
- →
Evaluate new markets: vertical attractiveness, TAM, competitive landscape, billing and invoicing workflows, buyer differences. Deliver go/no-go recommendations with draft GTM plans.
- →
Build GTM plans for new verticals: positioning, ICP definition, channel strategy, messaging, and pipeline targets.
- →
Advise on conference strategy as a growth channel: which events justify the investment and what the commercial play is at each in these verticals.

Keep sales, marketing, and product aligned on new-market work. You run the planning, set the priorities, and make sure everyone’s building the same thing.
7–12 years across growth, strategy, or business development in B2B SaaS or fintech.
You’ve taken at least one new market from “should we do this?” to “this is producing revenue.”
You switch contexts fast: positioning doc on Monday, BDR sequence brief on Tuesday, product roadmap review on Wednesday, CEO presentation on Thursday.
You test before you scale, you measure what matters, and you’re willing to say “this didn’t work, here’s what I learned” in a room full of people.
You’ve worked at a company between $3M–$30M ARR that was figuring out how to go from one market to several.
Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively across Product, Marketing, Sales, and executive stakeholders.
