Senior Consultant, Executive Talent – Endeavor

About the role

Vista is seeking an exceptional executive talent professional to support the Endeavor portfolio by building a deep, proprietary network of high-performing software executives and translating it into outstanding leadership outcomes. The role will focus primarily on CEO, CFO, CPO, CTO, CRO and other C-suite leadership positions across high-growth enterprise software businesses $10M - $100M ARR. The mandate is deliberately focused: build a deep executive bench for Endeavor companies and personally deliver 12–15 successful searches each year. The successful candidate will combine the relationship orientation of an executive recruiter with the judgment of a trusted advisor to investors, boards and management teams. This role also carries “dual citizenship” with the Vista Talent practice (which works with all companies in the Vista portfolio).

Success will be measured on two things: delivering 12–15 successful executive searches each year, and building a deep Endeavor bench, including strong candidates from prior searches who stay warm and in play. Together these give Endeavor a differentiated executive talent advantage: faster access to exceptional candidates, stronger hires across the portfolio, and a growing network of executives who want to build with Vista and Endeavor.

Responsibilities

• Build and Nurture the Endeavor Executive Bench.
  • Proactively identify, develop and maintain relationships with exceptional current and emerging leaders across these functions.
  • Partner with the Endeavor Fund to prioritize which benches to build, keeping them current and genuinely hireable, so Endeavor has ready access to proven leaders ahead of need.
