  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with product, engineering, and finance teams to align customer feedback with product roadmaps, pricing strategies, and business priorities.
  • Multi-Venture Leadership: Apply your expertise across multiple companies simultaneously—leveraging frameworks, insights, and systems to accelerate go-to-market success across the InVitro portfolio.

Requirements

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Experience: Minimum of 10 years in revenue leadership roles, including VP or C-level ownership of sales and GTM strategy at fast-growing B2B SaaS or tech companies. Prior experience at early-stage or scaling ventures strongly preferred.
  • Strategic & Operational Expertise: Proven ability to design and execute GTM plans from 0 to $10M+ in ARR, with hands-on experience across sales, demand generation, and customer success.
  • Technical Fluency: Comfort with CRM systems, pipeline reporting, lead scoring, sales enablement platforms, and performance analytics.
  • Team Leadership: Demonstrated success in hiring, developing, and managing distributed sales and GTM teams with strong results.
  • Communication: Clear, concise communicator with the ability to influence cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Venture Studio or Multi-Startup Experience: Familiarity with operating across more than one venture or leading GTM efforts in a portfolio model.
  • Industry Domain Knowledge: Experience in vertical SaaS, industrial tech, automation, or complex B2B sales environments.
  • Process Design & Scaling: Experience building repeatable sales processes, customer success programs, and growth experiments in fast-moving companies.
