Head of Marketing | CMO @ VC backed Company

Brand · Growth · Demand gen · Content

This is not a job posting for one specific company. XAnge is a VC firm: we keep a curated pool of senior profiles and introduce them to our portfolio startups when the right role opens up. This page describes what a Head of Marketing / CMO role typically looks like across our portfolio.

Work at an XAnge portfolio startup

You would join one of XAnge’s 80 portfolio companies: fast-growing European tech startups building meaningful products across B2B SaaS, Healthtech, Fintech, Climatetech, Martech and beyond. These are scale‑ups where growth depends on building a brand and a repeatable demand engine, with small, ambitious teams where ownership is real, decisions are fast, and your impact is visible from day one. Every company in the pool is backed by XAnge (Siparex Group) and surrounded by a community of 80 founders and operators to lean on.

The team and why we need you

As Head of Marketing / CMO, you typically join a founder‑led company that has product‑market fit and now needs a real marketing engine to fuel growth. You might be the first senior marketing hire building the function from scratch, or step in to scale an existing team. You own brand and growth, report directly to the CEO/founders, and work hand in hand with Sales and Product.

Why we need you

Great products still need to be found, understood and chosen, and turning that into pipeline is the challenge.

Who we’re looking for

We care about track record and mindset, not pedigree. Ten or more years is a guideline, not a hard rule: exceptional profiles below that threshold are welcome.

Preferred experience

• Owned the full marketing function in a startup or scale‑up (Series A to C) and built a marketing team from 0 to 1 and beyond

Hard skills

• Brand, demand generation, content, communications, SEO/SEA
• Data‑driven approach (CAC, LTV, MQL/SQL, attribution modelling)
• ABM, inbound, performance marketing
• Tooling (HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Analytics, Semrush, Webflow)
• French or European market experience a plus

Soft skills

• Strong storyteller
• Data‑driven
• Cross‑functional collaboration with Sales and Product
• Hands‑on builder mindset
• Team leadership
