Sway Sourcing Sweden Aktiebolag

This opportunity gives experienced entrepreneurial talent the chance to lead and scale a newly launched AI SaaS venture with funding, early customer validation, and operational support already in place. Instead of building alone, the CEO/co‑founder joins with access to experienced operators, infrastructure, and startup capital from day one.

Our client provides the foundation needed to launch and scale a high‑growth company from day one. The team behind the venture has successfully launched and scaled multiple companies, with several reaching profitability within their first year.

Our client partners with a limited number of founders and commits significant time, capital, and operational resources to each new venture. The team values speed, ownership, accountability, and clear decision‑making. They are looking for ambitious individuals with the drive and resilience to build and scale quickly.

As CEO, you’ll work closely with experienced operators across product, tech, design, GTM, legal, and fundraising while having the autonomy to shape and lead the business.

Who the Client Is Looking For

  • Commercial Growth Operator
    • Strong background in sales, growth, or go‑to‑market execution
    • Experience scaling revenue, teams, or acquisition funnels
    • Excited about building and leading a company from scratch
  • Strategy & Consulting Background
    • Experience from top‑tier consulting or strategy environments
    • Motivated by ownership and execution rather than advisory work
    • Comfortable operating in fast‑moving and ambiguous environments
  • Technical Founder / Product Builder
    • Experienced developer or product‑focused builder with hands‑on startup experience
    • Able to rapidly turn ideas into products and MVPs
    • Strong confidence in solving complex problems and building scalable solutions
    • Interested in stepping into a leadership and commercial role with operational support behind you

Responsibilities

  • Leading the company’s product strategy, go‑to‑market execution, hiring, and growth initiatives
  • Working closely with the client’s operational team across sales, marketing, finance, legal, and technology
  • Driving the business from early‑stage validation to funding, profitability, and long‑term scale

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Operate as the CEO of a newly established company
  • Work directly with customers to validate market needs and continuously improve the product
  • Collaborate with internal teams and other portfolio companies to accelerate execution and growth
  • Build and recruit the initial core team
  • Define priorities, set ambitious goals, and create momentum quickly

Experience & Qualifications

The ideal candidate has previously built or scaled something meaningful — whether that’s a product, business, commercial pipeline, or high‑performing team. You are comfortable operating in fast‑moving environments, making decisions with limited information, and taking full ownership of your work and results. The client is looking for candidates who align with one of the core founder profiles: Commercial / Growth‑focused, Strategy / Consulting background, Technical / Product‑oriented. Most importantly, you have a strong execution mindset and a proven ability to turn ideas into action.

Personal Qualities

  • A strong entrepreneurial drive
  • A hands‑on and proactive approach
  • Strategic thinking combined with execution capability
  • Strong communication and leadership skills
  • The ability to learn quickly and adapt fast
  • A genuine ambition to build and own something long term — not just join another company

Compensation & Growth Opportunity

  • Significant founder equity from day one (30%)
  • Competitive base salary from the start
  • Access to a full operational support structure across key business areas
  • Introductions to relevant partners, networks, and potential investors
  • A high‑impact leadership opportunity with the autonomy of a startup and the backing of an experienced venture team
  • The chance to build within a proven venture model with multiple successful company launches and growth stories
