Project Description

Following a successful start-up and the establishment of a solid client base, it was time to develop the product portfolio and sustainably boost the visibility and growth of the young company. To ensure strategic development of the product roadmap and expansion into Germany and Austria, for example, bexio found itself confronted with new demands on its management team. It met these needs through new appointments in the fields of marketing (Chief Marketing Officer) and products (Chief Product Officer). In the partnership between bexio and CareerTeam, a strong emphasis was placed on finding candidates with a high degree of professional and technical expertise as well as the ability to oversee, understand and generally advise on all areas of a young and dynamic company. The second profile presented by CareerTeam led to the appointment of a CMO, while the sixth provided the CPO.
