Enterprise Software Executive Hiring
Enterprise software companies operate on fundamentally different dynamics than SMB or mid-market SaaS. Sales cycles are longer. Procurement involves more stakeholders. Implementation complexity affects customer success in ways that consumer software never encounters. The executives who thrive in this environment have a specific profile — and finding them requires sourcing in the right stratum of the market.
Majhi Group places VP and C-suite executives at enterprise software companies across ERP, HCM, CRM, infrastructure, and vertical software. Every search begins with a structured review of the company's sales motion, customer profile, and expansion strategy — because the right VP of Sales for a company selling to procurement teams is not the same as one selling to technical buyers.

What Enterprise Software Gets Wrong in Executive Hiring
Confusing deal size with enterprise experience
A VP of Sales who has closed $500K deals at a fast-growing SMB company is not automatically qualified to lead an enterprise sales team. The motion, the cycle, the stakeholder management, and the commercial structure are different enough that the skills don't transfer automatically.
Underinvesting in Customer Success at scale
Expansion revenue in enterprise software is as important as new logo revenue. VP of Customer Success placements are often made too late — after churn has already indicated the problem. The right hire, made earlier, compounds over time.
Stage mismatch in Professional Services leadership
A VP of Professional Services from a company with 200 delivery consultants will approach methodology, capacity planning, and pricing differently than one who has built the function from 5 to 50. Identifying which stage-profile matches is critical.
"Enterprise software executive searches stall when the candidate profile is written for the aspirational company rather than the actual one. The intake has to be honest about where the business is today — not where the CEO hopes it will be in 18 months."
