Senior Commercial Leader / Entrepreneur in Residence
Description
Taxfix is building a portfolio of AI-native, SaaS-oriented businesses across different stages of maturity. We are looking for senior commercial leaders who can take ownership of one of these business areas and build it into a focused, repeatable, and durable growth engine. This role is for high-agency commercial builders who combine strong revenue ownership, sharp customer understanding, and disciplined execution with the ability to operate in ambiguity, experiment quickly, and make clear strategic choices. You will report to the COO or a designated business line leader and work closely with a senior product counterpart in a joint business-building setup. The initial focus is Germany, with potential to support expansion into additional markets.

- Proven ability to build or scale a commercial engine, including sales motion, segmentation, pricing, packaging, channels, lifecycle, and operating cadence
- Strong sales background with hands-on ownership of revenue outcomes, pipeline quality, conversion, forecasting, and commercial performance
- Strong P&L and unit economics orientation, including CAC, payback, retention, expansion, margin trade-offs, service cost, and cash implications
- Strong product-commercial judgment and ability to work closely with Product without relying on hierarchy
- High ownership, structured execution, and comfort operating in ambiguity
- Data-driven and experiment-minded, using evidence, customer signals, and fast learning loops to improve performance
- Talent multiplier with experience hiring, coaching, delegating, and developing strong leaders
