Job Description:

Contract & Hiring Info:

  • Chief Commercial Officer / Commercial Director (SaaS)
  • Hybrid Working (London/ Remote - Flexible)
  • Initial contract: 6 months (with possibility to extend to 12 months).
  • Interview Process:
  • Two-stage process with senior leadership and product stakeholders.
  • Start Date: ASAP

Business Context:

  • This is a global property management platform, acquired in last year by a fast-growing SaaS organisation.
  • Experiencing typical scale-up challenges:
  • Hasn't built a mature operating model.
  • Immature commercial structure, challenges with billing, compliance, insurance, and account management.
  • Several deep dives completed; there's now a strong understanding of existing pain points and opportunities.
  • With the current CEO stepping away, there's an opportunity to reshape the business and bring in senior commercial leadership.

Strategic Goals:

  • Transition from a founder-led scale-up to a mature, scalable SaaS business.
  • Implement strong operational control across customer excellence, sales, and account management.
  • Build an end-to-end commercial model that supports both internal delivery and market-facing growth.
  • Focus and stabilise the UK market first, as well as efficiency, and growth. Once stable, explore international expansion (France and US markets in early view).

Purpose:

To own and deliver the commercial strategy across all customer-facing functions, professionalise operations, and support the transition to a scale-ready organisation.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and execute commercial strategy across sales, account management, and customer success.
  • Structure and manage client delivery, operations, and team accountability.
  • Oversee compliance, billing, and service delivery performance across the portfolio.
  • Collaborate closely with product leadership to feed in market needs and operational insights.
  • Establish performance tracking, forecasting, and team reporting frameworks.
  • Operate as the day-to-day commercial lead, while the founder transitions to a full-time product-focused role.
  • Support long-term readiness for international expansion, but with a primary focus on stabilising the UK business.

Experience:

  • Deep experience in commercial leadership roles within SaaS businesses - ideally growth-stage or scale-up environments.
  • Track record of leading customer-facing teams in founder-led businesses.
  • Comfortable working in ambiguous, high-growth, non-corporate environments.
  • Proven ability to implement structure and process where little exists; across sales, customer success, and operations.
  • Highly capable of stakeholder management, including with strong founder personalities.
  • Able to "drop into" fast-moving organisations and get traction quickly.
  • Based in the UK, with UK market as the immediate priority.

Team Structure:

  • Direct reports:
  • Head of Sales
  • Head of Accounts
  • Customer Excellence leads
  • Official reporting line is into the product-focused founder.
  • Also works closely with internal leadership on future org structure and delivery oversight.
