Sample interview questionsHow would you assess and prioritize growth opportunities during your first 90 days as CEO of a product-led SaaS business?I would begin with a diagnostic of customer segments, retention and cohort data, acquisition channels, activation funnels, unit economics, product usage, and team capability. I would align the findings with the board and leadership team, identify the few constraints with the greatest impact on sustainable growth, and translate them into a sequenced operating plan with clear owners and measurable milestones.

Describe how you have used product-led growth and marketing together to increase SaaS revenue.

I treat product and marketing as an integrated growth system. I have used customer research and behavioral data to improve onboarding, reduce time-to-value, build lifecycle messaging, and target high-intent segments; then I measured impact through activation, conversion, retention, expansion, CAC payback, and contribution margin rather than relying on top-of-funnel volume alone.

How do you manage a SaaS P&L while continuing to invest in growth?

I establish a transparent planning model linking revenue, retention, headcount, marketing spend, product investment, and cash generation. I use leading indicators and scenario planning to make trade-offs early, protect investments with demonstrated return, and redirect spend quickly when evidence shows a channel, initiative, or market is not meeting its economic threshold.

What is your approach to leading multiple brands or business lines without losing strategic focus?

I define a shared operating cadence, common financial and performance metrics, and clear decision rights while preserving each brand's customer and product context. I standardize repeatable back-office and growth practices, appoint accountable leaders for each business, and reserve my direct involvement for the highest-leverage strategic decisions and cross-brand synergies.

How would you lead a German-focused HR technology business into international markets?

I would first validate that the core product, customer problem, and unit economics are strong in Germany. Next, I would select expansion markets based on regulatory complexity, localization requirements, competitive intensity, distribution fit, and customer demand, then run disciplined market-entry experiments before committing significant product or commercial resources.

### Profile Overview

We are looking for a CEO to lead one or more of our HR tech / workforce management SaaS brands into their next stage of growth and scale, with the potential to grow this into a multi-brand roll-up under one leader over time. As CEO, you will own the brand’s P&L, strategy, growth, culture, and overall performance, driving both short-term execution and long-term strategic direction. You will work closely with our leadership team, board, and the broader saas.group community to deliver impact across go-to-market, product, operations, and finance. This role is an opportunity to shape the future of a small, highly profitable SaaS business (or cluster of businesses) within a high-growth portfolio, while having the backing, network, and resources of saas.group.

These are product-led, self-serve B2B SaaS businesses serving the German market first, with room to internationalize over time. We’re looking for a strong product-led-growth operator and general manager: someone who can grow revenue and product and manage PnL.

### Your responsibilities

* Own growth for a product-led (PLG) SaaS business: sharpen the product, drive acquisition and activation, and build a scalable go-to-market engine: marketing and product are the two competencies that matter most here
* Drive operational excellence: build budgets, track KPIs, optimize ROI, and implement process improvements that increase efficiency and scalability.
* Build, coach, and retain a high-performing leadership team; create succession plans and ensure organizational resilience, including across multiple small, complementary brands as the portfolio grows.
* Foster innovation by identifying disruptive trends (including AI), experimenting with new business models, and making data-driven bets that strengthen market position.
* Champion a strong culture: set high performance standards, encourage collaboration, ensure alignment with saas.group values, and embed diversity and inclusion.
* Be ready to take on additional brands within the same space as the portfolio grows

### What you bring to the table

* Proven leadership experience as a CEO, GM, or senior executive in a B2B SaaS HR Tech company, ideally product-led (PLG), with a strong track record of driving growth and building enduring businesses.
* A strong operational and commercial background, first and foremost: you’re an operator who has grown a product and a team
* Marketing and product as core strengths: demonstrated ability to grow a SaaS product’s user base and revenue through marketing-led and product-led motions.
* Strong financial acumen: budgeting, forecasting, and P&L responsibility, with proven ability to link financial discipline to sustainable growth.
* Experience leading organizational transformation through process improvements, operational standardization, and adoption of cutting-edge practices.
* A talent magnet: skilled at hiring, developing, and retaining top performers, mentoring future leaders, and creating succession pipelines.
* Strong people leadership: ability to set goals, hold teams accountable, address performance issues decisively, and nurture a culture of excellence.
* Comfort managing more than one brand or business line at once, with the versatility to context-switch across a small portfolio of complementary products.
* Fluent German speaker with strong English, given the initial market focus on Germany; international experience or ambition is a plus as these brands expand beyond DACH.
* Visionary mindset with the ability to communicate a compelling long-term direction that inspires both internal and external stakeholders.
* Excellent communication and influencing skills, with fluency in English (additional languages are a plus).
* AI Literacy & Application: You actively use AI tools to enhance personal productivity and work quality, staying curious about emerging capabilities and identifying opportunities to apply AI pragmatically in day-to-day work.

### What’s in it for you

* Ultimate flexibility: We’re 100% remote. You can work from wherever you like, whenever you like.
* Freedom and autonomy: We’re a high-trust team, and you’ll be given lots of flexibility to solve problems in your own way — with plenty of help from the team when you need it.
* Minimum bureaucracy: We don’t like to get bogged down with meetings and red tape. We like to be efficient and keep momentum steady and sustainable.
* Small and friendly team: We help each other out, have fun, and joke around.
* Our network: We are a community of entrepreneurial SaaS professionals that regularly exchange ideas, knowledge, learning, and expertise with each other internally.
* Flexible time off: We want you to recharge your batteries when needed.

We don’t just simply offer you to “take a job with us” but rather to “join us on this journey” to build the world’s largest platform of independent SaaS companies.

Sounds like something you’re up for? Feel free to apply even if you don’t check all these boxes. We believe in the power of diversity and fresh perspectives to spice up our team. Your application might just be the missing ingredient!
