Product executive search for leaders who move the business

We recruit product leaders for high-growth SaaS, AI, D2C, ecommerce and marketplace companies—from senior manager and director through Head of Product, VP and Chief Product Officer.

We don’t start with a title. We start with the outcome your next hire needs to deliver. Then we find people who have done comparable work, check what they owned and assess whether that experience fits your business.

What your product leader needs to own

Define the product decisions, commercial outcomes and team responsibilities before choosing a title. A senior manager, director, Head of Product, VP and CPO are not interchangeable hires.

We assess the candidate against your mandate: the decisions they made, the teams they led and the results they can explain and substantiate.

Every candidate we recommend has:

01

A product-centric mindset

You're looking to hire a product leader who understands all there is to know about product development. Thanks to our proprietary Rocket Talent Precision System, we recommend candidates who possess a deep-rooted product mindset. From ideation to launch and beyond, we identify candidates with a passion for proper product development and a deep understanding of customer needs.

02

Technical proficiency

While vision is undeniably important, a strong technical foundation makes for a well-rounded product. We vet candidates for their proficiency with the latest tools and platforms, focusing on those with a deep understanding of software development lifecycles — talent who can effectively collaborate with engineering teams and make data-driven decisions.

03

Potent problem-solving ability

For a product employee to identify and address user pain points properly, they require exceptional problem-solving skills. Our in-depth psychometric evaluations ensure we identify candidates with a knack for defining, analyzing, and solving complex product challenges.

04

Innate creativity and innovation

You need product talent that can generate groundbreaking ideas and bring them to life — not once, but time and time again. Through success mapping metrics, we make sure candidates have a proven track record of developing disruptive product strategies that challenge the status quo.

05

User-centric consideration

Alongside skills and qualifications, empathy for the end-user is crucial. Through comprehensive back-channeling, we identify candidates who excel at conducting user research, defining user personas, and building products that deliver exceptional experiences.
