Take the next strategic step in your career as a tech executive
Executive search is all about timing, trust, and vision. Through Haystack People, you’ll connect with organizations looking for leaders who make a real impact. Think of CTO, CEO, CPO, and executive leadership roles where you’ll help drive growth, shape strategy, and lead organizational development.
We work closely with founders, boards, and investors across the Dutch tech sector. As a result, we understand not only the opportunities themselves, but also the growth stage, culture, and challenges behind the organizations we partner with. This allows us to make introductions that are based on genuine alignment not just on a job description.
Many executive positions are filled entirely through confidential search processes. We provide discreet guidance, strategic advice, and warm introductions to companies that typically don’t recruit publicly.
This gives you access to opportunities that are rarely visible on the open market, while ensuring complete confidentiality throughout the process.
What you might want to know
Yes. We regularly support executives who are looking to move into a broader leadership role. Particularly within product-led organizations, a strong technical background can be a significant advantage. Experience in technology, product development, and scaling teams often provides a solid foundation for taking on wider business responsibilities and driving company-wide strategy.
Absolutely. We also place fractional CTOs and interim executives with organizations that are looking for temporary strategic leadership. These assignments are ideal for experienced leaders who want to make an impact, provide strategic direction, and help organizations navigate periods of growth, transformation, or change without committing to a permanent executive role.
We never share information about your situation without your explicit consent. In the early stages of the process, we always work confidentially and anonymously. This allows you to explore new opportunities and have meaningful conversations without compromising your current position or professional reputation.
We work on roles such as CEO, CTO, CPO, and Managing Director positions at startups, scale-ups, and established technology companies across e-commerce, SaaS, and platform technology. These opportunities range from scaling high-growth businesses to leading mature organizations, all within environments where technology plays a critical role in the company’s success and strategy.
