GroTech delivers 40 European GTM SaaS hires

Overview

A Nordic-based EX/CX SaaS company partnered with GroTech Search to support a large-scale European commercial expansion project focused on building multilingual Go-To-Market teams across key European markets.

Over the course of the partnership, GroTech Search delivered 40 hires across Sales, SDR, Customer Success, Account Management, Marketing, and Leadership functions, helping the business establish and scale regional commercial operations across the UK and mainland Europe.

Company Background

The client is a European SaaS company specialising in employee experience (EX) and customer experience (CX) feedback technology, supporting organisations with survey, engagement, and feedback management solutions across international markets.

At the time of engagement, the business was investing heavily in international growth and required scalable commercial infrastructure to support expansion across Europe.

The Challenge

The client needed to rapidly build multilingual commercial teams across multiple European regions simultaneously.

The initial project focused on scaling the new business organisation across:

Sweden
Norway
Finland
Germany
Netherlands
United Kingdom

A major requirement was sourcing native-language SaaS professionals capable of selling into local markets while aligning with the company’s broader international growth strategy.

Several hires represented foundational GTM roles within emerging territories, particularly across:

UK
DACH
Netherlands

Alongside new business hiring, the company also needed to strengthen:

Customer Success
Account Management
Marketing leadership

The challenge was compounded by:

Highly competitive SaaS hiring markets
Local language requirements
Multi-country stakeholder management
The need for speed without compromising quality

GroTech Search Approach

GroTech Search partnered closely with leadership teams to build a scalable, territory-specific hiring strategy across Europe.

Multilingual GTM Hiring Strategy

Each market was approached independently to reflect:

Local hiring conditions
Candidate expectations
Compensation benchmarks
Language requirements
Regional SaaS competition

This allowed the business to build commercially credible local teams capable of accelerating regional growth.

Key hires included:

Sales Directors — UK & Netherlands
Head of Growth — Nordics
