VP of Sales Recruitment - Scale Your Sales Organisation

VP of Sales recruitment supports companies that need senior commercial leadership to scale revenue, align teams and bring more discipline to sales execution.

HEMES helps companies hire VP of Sales talent with the experience to shape strategy, lead managers, improve forecasting and guide the sales organisation through growth.

From Sales Activity to Revenue Leadership

A strong VP of Sales does not only manage sales activity. They connect company goals with the people, processes and decisions needed to reach them.

The right person understands how revenue is created across the whole sales organisation. They can review the current setup, identify what is slowing growth and build a clearer operating rhythm for teams, managers and leadership.

When the Business Is Ready for a VP of Sales

You should hire VP of Sales talent when sales has become too complex to manage through founder involvement, individual managers or informal processes.

This usually happens when the company is expanding into new markets, managing several sales teams, adding new sales motions or preparing for a more predictable scale-up phase. A VP of Sales brings senior ownership when revenue growth needs stronger structure, sharper decisions and better alignment.

How HEMES Runs VP Sales Headhunting

HEMES starts by defining the type of VP of Sales your company needs. Some businesses need a scale-up operator. Others need an enterprise sales leader, market expansion profile, team builder or executive-level commercial strategist.

Through VP sales headhunting, we evaluate senior leadership experience, commercial maturity, sales team scaling ability and fit with your company stage.

Our vice president sales recruitment process is built around real sales performance signals. We look at how candidates have built teams, improved forecasting, managed managers, created accountability and influenced revenue outcomes.

What We Assess in VP of Sales Candidates

  • Executive commercial judgement: They can make senior decisions about revenue, team structure, sales motion and market priorities.
  • Scaling experience: They understand how to grow sales teams without losing focus, quality or accountability.
  • Forecasting discipline: They know how to create visibility across pipeline, targets, conversion and performance.
  • Manager leadership: They can lead through sales managers, not only individual contributors.
  • Strategic communication: They can align founders, boards, leadership teams and sales teams around the same revenue direction.
  • Change management: They can fix what is not working while keeping teams focused and motivated.

Situations Where VP of Sales Recruitment Matters

Companies come to HEMES when they need to recruit senior sales executives for growth stages where sales leadership becomes a strategic priority.

This may include hiring the first VP of Sales, replacing a senior commercial leader, preparing for international expansion, building a management layer, improving forecast accuracy or professionalising the sales function before the next stage of growth.

We help identify VP of Sales candidates who fit the company’s revenue model, leadership culture, team maturity and growth expectations.

I've been working with Edvin when he was a VP of sales, first at Whatagraph and then at Favro. One thing that struck me with Edvin was his ability to hire and assemble high-performing sales teams. It was a no-brainer to work with Edvin to hire SDRs, Sales Executives, and other sales roles when he launched HEMES. Edvin kept delivering, and I highly recommend his services!
