Questions
About executive search.
Can you help us hire our first VP of Sales?
Yes. A first VP of Sales has to build the team, not just run it, so we look for leaders who have done that before at a company like yours and can show the numbers.
Do you recruit sales leaders for SaaS companies?
Yes. We search for CROs, VPs of Sales and sales directors for SaaS and technology companies in Canada and the U.S.
Are you a retained search firm?
No. You pay only when we place a leader, and the same guarantees apply as for every hire: first-year quota, placement within 45 days and a one-time replacement within 12 months.
Is the search confidential?
Yes. We approach candidates directly and discreetly, and we don’t advertise the role unless you want us to.
How long does a sales executive search take?
We guarantee a placement within 45 days, for leadership roles too.
As Co-CEO of the Nearshore Company, I engaged Sales Talent Group last year to search for our VP of Business Development. I was very pleased with their work, not only in finding the right person for the job, but also the rigorous process, flexibility, patience and good attitude throughout the search. I would recommend Sales Talent Group to anyone embarking on a complicated sales executive search.
