Commercial & Marketing Executive Search

We find the commercial leaders capable of driving revenue, market share, and brand equity.

The Engine of Growth

Today, the line between Sales and Marketing has blurred. Modern commercial leadership is no longer just about “managing a sales team” or “running campaigns.” It is about building a unified revenue engine where data, brand strategy, and customer acquisition work in perfect sync.

Whether you are looking to enter a new market, pivot your go-to-market strategy, or transform a legacy sales culture into a high-performance machine, the leadership profile is critical. You need leaders who understand the mathematics of growth—and who can inspire teams to deliver against ambitious targets.

At CJPI, we move beyond the “rolodex” approach. We identify commercial heavyweights who combine the art of persuasion with the science of performance.

The CJPI Difference

Why CJPI for Commercial Recruitment?

Commercial hires are high-risk; a bad Sales Director can cost you a year of growth. We mitigate this risk by testing for strategy, execution, and cultural alignment.

Hunter vs. Farmer vs. Architect
Not all commercial leaders are built the same. Some are "Hunters" (new business), some are "Farmers" (account growth), and some are "Architects" (building the strategy). We diagnose exactly which profile your business lifecycle needs before we even start the search.
The ROI Mindset
In Marketing and Sales, activity does not equal achievement. We assess candidates on their data literacy and commercial grip. We look for leaders who can demonstrate exactly how their strategies translated into bottom-line revenue, not just "brand awareness" or "meetings booked."
Alignment & Integration
The friction between Sales and Marketing is a common growth killer. We look for collaborative leaders who break down silos. Whether hiring a CMO or a Sales Director, we assess their ability to work cross-functionally to ensure the entire organisation is selling the same vision.
