As executive search consultants, a by-product of our expertise is a diverse directory of executive compensation surveys.

When we complete an assignment, we aggregate the compensation data we have collected across the search and share it with the executive talent community from which it came. In this case, in Q3 and Q4 2022, we conducted an SVP of Sales search for a venture capital-backed martech company.

To support our talent strategy, we focused on the target talent pool comprising those who either currently or in recent past roles held titles of GM, Head of Sales, SVP Sales, and a host of related executive leadership roles. A requirement of at least 10 years in a New Business/Sales and Marketing role was also taken into account.
