Job Description
About The Role
We are looking for a hands-on, growth-minded CEO to lead a listed technology company into its next phase of scale. This is a front-line leadership role - owning the full P&L, driving revenue, building the team, and personally carrying key customer, partner, and investor relationships.
The right person is a builder: someone who has scaled a software or technology business, sells from the front, and turns strategy into measurable outcomes rather than slide decks.
What Youll Own
- Business & P&L: Full ownership of strategy, operations, profitability, and shareholder value, backed by clear short- and long-term plans.
- Revenue growth: Lead sales, presales, marketing, and customer engagement across the complete software sales lifecycle - from lead generation and solution design through bidding, negotiation, closure, delivery, and customer success.
- Key relationships: Build and deepen relationships across Government, Defence, PSUs, Smart City, BFSI, and enterprise/strategic accounts - and with IT OEMs, system integrators, distributors, and channel partners.
- Team building: Hire, mentor, and retain top talent across Sales, Presales, Business Development, Product, Engineering, Delivery, Customer Success, and Support — and build a culture of accountability, innovation, and ownership.
- Performance: Define KPIs, run reviews, and drive consistent achievement of business targets.
- Governance: Ensure operational excellence, compliance, corporate governance, and risk management.
- Representation: Be the companys face before customers, partners, regulators, investors, and industry forums.
- Strategic growth: Drive market expansion and, where relevant, alliances, M&A, and new business units.
What You Bring
- 15–20 years in IT, Software, SaaS, Technology, Digital Transformation, Cybersecurity, AI, ERP, or Enterprise Solutions.
- 5–10 years in a senior leadership role - CEO, COO, Business Head, Country Manager, VP, MD, or equivalent.
- A proven track record of generating business and growing revenue from day one, including large-value enterprise and project sales.
- Strong command of presales, solution consulting, bid management, tendering, and the enterprise sales process - plus working knowledge of SDLC and product lifecycle management.
- An established network across Government, Defence, PSU, BFSI, and enterprise accounts, and with OEMs and channel partners.
- Sharp commercial acumen, strong financial management, and the gravitas to influence at CXO, Board, Government, and Investor levels.
- Excellent communication, negotiation, and people-leadership skills.
- Willingness to travel extensively across India and internationally, and to be based in Ahmedabad.
- Bachelors degree in Engineering, Computer Science, IT, Business Administration, or a related field.
- MBA from a reputed institution preferred.
Best-in-industry, structured as fixed compensation plus performance-linked incentives, with ESOPs / stock-linked benefits (where applicable) and executive benefits per company policy.
