Organizations the world-over are experiencing continual digital growth, with no signs of stopping or slowing down. Reliance on digital technology is skyrocketing as companies adapt to a rapidly changing business environment.

What’s more, our services can be personalized to fulfill clients’ specific needs, setting us apart from other SaaS recruitment firms.
Our SaaS recruiters at Keller Executive Search are dedicated to identifying exceptional candidates that resonate with our client organization’s corporate culture and operational needs. We achieve this through a rigorous recruitment strategy that involves:
We commence the recruiting process by garnering an understanding of our client’s hiring needs in the SaaS space. Once we grasp their specific requirements, we initiate the search for the right candidates to meet these demands.
All potential candidates undergo a thorough evaluation to ascertain their proficiency in the field of SaaS before we present them to the client. Once we have concluded our assessments, we submit the shortlisted candidates to the client, who has the final say in the hiring process.
In addition to recruiting high-quality employees and leaders for SaaS-specific roles, we also provide innovative staffing models to help our clients attract and retain top talent in this competitive industry.
Our extensive talent network, NPAworldwide partnership, and deep industry knowledge enable us to source the most qualified candidates for every level within a SaaS company, from Software Engineers and Sales Directors to Customer Success Vice Presidents and Chief Revenue Officers.
Keller’s offerings do not end at executive recruitment. We also offer advisory services that help SaaS companies reach their goals by developing more streamlined processes, systems, and workflows. We also provide guidance on leadership transitions, salary benchmarking, executive coaching, and various other HR functions.
We measure our success based on the success of our client company. Therefore, we never compromise when searching for the perfect candidate for a role. Our goal is to identify highly-skilled candidates whose competencies align with our client company’s vision, needs, and goals. Essentially, we customize our services to our clients to facilitate their business growth.
We start with a comprehensive assessment of our client’s business to pinpoint areas that could benefit from the ideal candidate placement. We then tailor our recruitment strategy to match, which ensures we find the right talent for our client.
Using the findings of our initial assessment as our guide, we survey the market for potential matches. A key part of our approach is our commitment to inclusion and diversity throughout the candidate-selection process. We recognize the value that diverse perspectives can bring to an organization, especially in an industry as vast and innovative as SaaS, so we strive to remain unbiased in terms of candidates’ demographics.
After gathering the resumes of candidates who fit the bill, we evaluate them in more detail to ensure they are compatible with the role. This involves a plethora of assessments, including psychometric tests, background and reference checks, and competency interviews. This helps us narrow down the candidate pool until only the best remain.
We present the finalists in an organized report to our client, who may conduct their own evaluations and interviews before arriving at a decision regarding who to hire.
Keller was the brainchild of our passion for high-quality placements and the understanding that every organization requires something different when it comes to talent acquisition. However, it took us some time to grow our company’s reputation into what it is now.
In fact, when we first entered the executive recruiting arena, we utilized a cut-and-dry method that overlooked some of the essential factors that impact placement success, such as cultural alignment. This allowed us to recruit for roles where time was of the essence, but it did not equip us for recruiting senior executives, as these typically require more finesse.
Nevertheless, we opted to use this method when we were tasked by a prominent client to help find an individual for a high-level position at their firm. Although we placed a candidate in good faith, it soon became clear that they were not the ideal match for our client’s team. This resulted in friction between staff members and morale suffered, eventually leading to the new hire’s resignation.
Although this was a huge letdown for us and our client, it opened our eyes to the limitations of our generic approach. Following this realization, we modified our recruitment process into one that takes company dynamics, leadership style, and personality into account. This change improved our placement success rates by a wide margin and has helped the Keller brand become synonymous with recruitment excellence. Clients now depend on our deep industry expertise for placing even the most difficult leadership roles.

"Keller found us a customer success leader who's transformed how we onboard enterprise clients. Their focus on cultural osmosis - not just resume bullet points - meant the fit was seamless from day one. In a space where retention is everything, this hire has been our secret weapon. Trust their team to understand what ‘strategic' really means in SaaS."

"I was blown away by how Keller decoded our chaotic startup environment into a clear hiring roadmap. They filtered for the exact blend of technical grit and collaborative spark we needed in a VP of Product. Three months post-hire, cross-functional alignment has never been smoother. Their process is the antidote to SaaS's ‘hire fast, fix later' trap."

The hire not only stabilized our platform but inspired a culture shift across engineering. I've recommended them to every founder in my network."
