This is a high-impact, founder-facing investment leadership role focused on building and scaling a structured acquisition engine across Europe. You will be responsible for originating and converting high-quality software acquisition opportunities, engaging directly with founders, advisors, and stakeholders across multiple verticals. The role blends strategic market development, hands-on execution, and executive-level relationship building in a fast-paced, private equity-backed software environment. You will design and operate a repeatable system for sourcing deals, building trust with founders, and progressing opportunities through the full investment lifecycle. Acting as a regional leader, you will also build and scale a high-performing origination team while shaping go-to-market strategy and operating rhythms. This is a deeply entrepreneurial position with significant ownership, visibility, and long-term impact on portfolio growth.

• Own and execute the European origination strategy, including market mapping, ICP definition, vertical theses, and coverage models across target software niches.
• Build and scale a high-performing outbound origination function, including hiring, coaching, and managing team leads and managers to achieve aggressive pipeline targets.
• Develop and run multi-channel outreach programs (email, phone, LinkedIn, events, and conferences) to engage founders, advisors, and intermediaries.
• Lead structured operating rhythms (WBRs, MBRs, QBRs) and ensure strong CRM discipline, pipeline visibility, and accurate deal tracking across all stages.
• Drive founder engagement and conversion by building trust-based relationships and progressing opportunities from first contact through LOI and transaction close.
• Act as a regional closer for key opportunities, supporting negotiations, maintaining momentum, and ensuring successful execution through to signed agreements.
• Collaborate closely with M&A, operating, and people teams to align on qualification standards, market prioritization, and team scaling initiatives.
• Develop and continuously refine playbooks, tooling, and data-driven systems to optimize outreach, conversion, and deal velocity.

Requirements:

• 10+ years of experience in B2B software, enterprise sales, origination, or investment-related roles, ideally within PE-backed or high-growth SaaS environments.
• Proven experience building and scaling outbound sales or origination teams (15–30+ people), including hiring, coaching, and performance management.
• Strong track record of success in founder-led sales, enterprise new-logo acquisition, or M&A-facing commercial roles.
• Deep understanding of SaaS ecosystems, market mapping, pipeline development, and modern GTM and outreach methodologies.
• Exceptional ability to build credibility and influence senior stakeholders, particularly founders and executive-level decision-makers.
• Strong systems thinking with experience using structured operating models, metrics, and CRM-driven performance management.
• Highly developed negotiation and closing skills, with experience managing complex, multi-stakeholder deal cycles through to completion.
• Bachelor’s degree in business, finance, or a related field is preferred.
• Strong communication, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration skills in fast-paced, high-growth environments.

Benefits:

• Competitive executive-level compensation package with performance-based incentives.
• Opportunity to lead and scale a high-growth investment origination function across Europe.
• High autonomy and ownership within a long-term, evergreen investment platform.
• Exposure to experienced operators, investors, and advisors across global software markets.
• Flexible working arrangements with regional travel across Europe.
• Significant career progression opportunities in investment leadership and portfolio development.
• Dynamic, entrepreneurial environment focused on continuous improvement and long-term value creation.
