  • Experience effectively communicating strategic objectives and action plans to multiple teams across a variety of functions
  • Experience working within the tech/SaaS industry 
  • Strong leadership experience and ability to work with colleagues across multiple disciplines and in geographically dispersed locations
  • Proven success in evaluating, executing, and integrating acquisitions
  • The ability to set a vision, execute on a strategy, and roll up your sleeves and get into the details when necessary
