Chief Growth Officer, VERDICT
SVECTOR · Full-time · Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India (On-site)
About the role
VERDICT is SVECTOR's product for talent decisions: leadership hiring, enterprise assessment, and volume hiring. Right now it runs on founder conviction. This role exists to test that conviction against real buyers and turn it into a business that doesn't need the founder to close every deal.
The mandate
Convert founder belief into tested market evidence: who pays, why, how much, how urgently. Then build the pricing, positioning, and playbook that make VERDICT repeatable, not one relationship's worth of revenue.
This is not a Head of Sales role. If it were about meetings booked and calls made, it would carry that title. This role is accountable for whether VERDICT becomes a business.
What you'll own
Not sales alone. The whole commercial system: acquisition, pricing, positioning, retention, expansion, and deal design.
- Run early discovery personally, before there's a finished product or case study to lean on
- Personally close the first customers, then document what worked so it can be taught
- Decide when founder involvement changes the odds of closing, and use that leverage sparingly
- Forecast honestly: what's likely, what's possible, what isn't happening without a specific change
- Negotiate for value, not just price: trade concessions for term length, references, or faster payment
- Understand VERDICT well enough to sell it without a script and to push back on product or pricing with market evidence
Who actually fits this
We're not looking for activity. We're looking for someone who gets real energy from building something out of nothing, and who can prove they've closed before, not just supported the process.
- You've personally originated and closed enterprise deals, and carried a number you were directly accountable for
- You've negotiated pricing and terms with senior buyers, not just relayed a quote
- You've navigated procurement, legal, or multi-stakeholder buying and gotten the deal signed anyway
- You'd rather prove one repeatable motion than chase five directions at once
- You write clearly enough to move a deal forward by email and proposal, not calls alone
This won't work if
- You measure your own success by meetings booked or pipeline size rather than closed, quality revenue
- You need a finished product, complete pricing, and a lead list before you can sell
- You'd route every deal through the founder rather than owning it
- You're looking for a big team or title on day one. Both are earned here, not granted upfront
