Product Marketing Manager
AI-native brand and retail intelligence platform, freshly seed-funded. First marketing hire.
EnquireSaaS sales recruitment · London & New York
SaaS sales hires.
That's all we do.
SDRs, Account Executives and sales leaders, placed by consultants who carried a quota before they carried a search.
01 · Brief
We don't need a briefing on your business model.
ARR, pipeline velocity, CAC/LTV, PLG versus sales-led. Every consultant already speaks it, so the first call is about the hire, not the vocabulary.
02 · Search
Fifteen years of a network that only sells software.
Proactive and reactive search across the UK, US and Europe. The people you want are rarely applying. They are in our phone.
03 · Shortlist
Three to five candidates. Not twenty CVs and hope.
Every name is benchmarked against your stage, culture and commercial need. The first AE for a Series A looks nothing like the enterprise seller you need at Series C.
04 · Interview
Briefed before. Debriefed after. Every round.
Candidates arrive prepared and leave heard. You get honest feedback in both directions, so nobody wastes a week finding out what a ten-minute call would have told them.
05 · Offer & onboard
Managed to signature. Supported after it.
Compensation benchmarks for both sides of the Atlantic, counter-offer handling and post-placement check-ins. The hire is done when they are hitting number.
Why h2
Hire the seller,
not the CV.
Keyword-matching a CV to a job description finds people who write well. It doesn't find people who close. h2 Recruit was founded in 2011 by two former software sales professionals who had been on the wrong end of that. We don't try to be the biggest agency. We aim to be the most respected SaaS sales and GTM recruiter in the market, the one founders, sales leaders and candidates come back to for a whole career.

About
You see the hire.
We see the quota behind it.
h2 Recruit was founded in 2011 by Ian Harwood and Brian Hawkins. Both sold software before they recruited for it, and both understood that hiring great salespeople takes more than matching keywords. The New York office opened the same year, headed by Hamish Scott, on the back of UK clients who needed a specialist on the ground in North America.
Every consultant on the team is a former sales professional. That is why we evaluate a candidate the way a sales leader would, and why clients and candidates keep coming back across an entire career.
