Chief Product & Technology Officer (CPTO) Enterprise SaaS | AI-Native Finance Platform | London
A global enterprise SaaS business is hiring a Chief Product & Technology Officer to help lead a major transformation across product, engineering and AI strategy.
The company operates an established international B2B software platform with approximately 450 employees globally, around £50m ARR and an 83% recurring SaaS revenue model. Following a broader strategic shift, the business is investing heavily into the future of its modern Finance ERP platform and next-generation AI capabilities.
This is not a traditional CTO role.
The business is specifically looking for a product-led technology executive who can combine platform strategy, engineering leadership and commercial thinking within a complex enterprise software environment.
The role sits directly alongside the CEO and will play a central role in shaping the future direction of the platform, product organization and broader technology strategy.
What you will be leading:
The company is moving away from a fragmented legacy product estate toward a more unified, AI-enabled finance platform architecture.
Key challenges include:
- modernizing mature enterprise software environments,
- simplifying and rationalizing product architecture,
- embedding AI meaningfully into workflows and customer outcomes,
- improving execution velocity across product and engineering,
- aligning platform strategy more closely to commercial growth.
This environment combines enterprise SaaS scale with the pace and ambiguity of a transformation-led business. The role requires someone comfortable making difficult prioritization decisions, driving organizational change and balancing innovation with operational realities.
Key Responsibilities:
- Define the long-term product and technology vision,
- Lead platform modernization and AI adoption strategy,
- Align product, engineering and GTM priorities,
- Simplify and consolidate complex product environments,
- Improve engineering execution, delivery and scalability,
- Partner with executive leadership and board stakeholders,
- Build a high-performing product and engineering culture,
- Help position the platform for long-term enterprise growth.
Ideal Background:
- Previous CPTO, CTO or senior product & technology leadership experience,
- Experience within enterprise SaaS, FinTech, ERP or financial software environments,
- Strong understanding of AI-driven platform transformation,
- Proven ability to lead both product and engineering organizations,
- Experience modernizing or scaling complex B2B software platforms,
- Commercial mindset with strong executive stakeholder management skills.
Experience within high-growth, PE-backed or transformation-focused environments is highly valuable.
Why this role stands out:
This is an opportunity to help reshape an established enterprise software business into a modern AI-native platform organization with direct influence at CEO and board level.
The role offers genuine strategic ownership, large-scale transformation scope and the opportunity to solve complex product, technology and commercial challenges within a highly relevant and evolving market.
If you are excited by the idea of transforming a complex enterprise software business into a modern AI-native finance platform, we would love to speak with you confidentially.
