We (@lets_align) are thrilled to support a growing eCommerce brand in the sleep tech space as they search for their new GM.

This business is growing and profitable, with proprietary technology that gives the brand a significant edge as it develops new products and enters new markets.

The successful candidate will bring an extensive network of eCommerce experts and agencies to hit the ground running. If you’re a growth executive with experience scaling a DTC brand from $5M to $30M+ (preferably in the sleep tech space), we’d love to hear from you.

This role is open to candidates in the US or Canada. Send us a note to [email protected] with a bit about your experience growing a sleep tech brand.

Bonus points if you have successfully navigated the launch and growth of selling on Amazon and other US marketplaces.

The #1 question I get asked is:

“How do I hire a CEO?”

On today’s MFM, me, @thesamparr and @ShaanVP go deep on how to hire, incentivize, and manage a CEO.

I share all my learnings from my experience hiring ~40+ CEOs and leaders across Tiny (and many epic fuck ups along the way).

Reference checks, like interviews, are only helpful if you prepare properly and know what you’re looking for.

Go in with an open mind, dig deep, and treat any red flags very seriously.

Your future self will thank you.

We're supporting a small (ish) SaaS business in their search to find a new General Manager.

This is a unique opportunity for a motivated SaaS executive to step into a successful, profitable SaaS business and scale it to new heights.

If you have:

- Experience successfully building and leading a product function in a growing SaaS business (ideally you've had direct leadership: VP, Head of Product or CPO experience in a company that has scaled from 20 to 100+ people).

- Experience leading a team in a profits-first company.

- Managed a P&L or are deeply interested in the financial operations of a growing technology company.

This is a truly special company with a loyal customer base and a massive TAM.

If you're ambitious and have considered the GM or CEO role as the ideal next step in your career, we'd love to chat!

Role is remote, and open to Canadian or US candidates. Send us a note to [email protected], or my DMs are always open! 😊
