The MarTech Executive Challenge
The marketing technology market has thousands of vendors, a buyer who is simultaneously sophisticated about technology and overwhelmed by vendor claims, and a competitive landscape where positioning clarity is the primary differentiator. Executives who can navigate this environment — selling to CMOs, differentiating from well-funded competitors, and building teams that understand the marketing buyer — are a specific and constrained pool.
Majhi Group places commercial and operational executives at MarTech companies across email marketing, attribution, CDP, SEO, content, ABM, and marketing analytics. Every search profiles the candidate's experience with the marketing buyer persona and the specific category dynamics of the company's market.

What Sets MarTech Executive Search Apart
The buyer is a marketer — not a technologist
MarTech executives must sell to buyers who understand marketing outcomes but may not prioritise technical specifications. The sales narrative has to be built around marketing ROI, not product features — and executives who lead with features in this market consistently underperform.
Agency and partnership channels are primary revenue sources
Many MarTech companies generate significant revenue through marketing agency partnerships. Executives who have built and managed agency channels understand a different sales motion than direct enterprise — and that experience is rare and valuable.
Product-led growth dynamics change the executive profile
MarTech companies that use PLG motions need executives who understand how to convert product usage signals into enterprise conversations — a skill that is meaningfully different from traditional enterprise sales.
"The best VP of Sales candidates for MarTech companies are often current or former marketing leaders who moved into sales leadership — because they understand the buyer's world from the inside. The search has to look in the right places."
Majhi Group's MarTech Search Process
Majhi Group closes MarTech executive searches in 30–45 days. Every search begins with a structured assessment of the company's GTM motion, buyer persona, and competitive positioning — so the candidate profile reflects what the role actually requires, not what a generic VP of Sales description would suggest.
