About the Role

The Segment General Manager is the business owner for one of Global Nexis Solutions customer segments. The role owns the segment P&L and its strategic direction: where the segment focuses, which priorities matter most, where gNS invests and what outcomes the business must deliver.

The right leader combines P&L ownership, deep knowledge of the segment's customers and market, and the judgement to make clear choices and trade-offs under uncertainty.

You’ll be responsible for defining and delivering segment growth strategy, owning commercial outcomes, and ensuring investment decisions are aligned to customer needs and business objectives. Working across Sales, Product, Marketing, Finance, and Customer Success, you will lead through influence to drive performance, prioritize opportunities, and deliver sustainable growth through evidence-based decision-making.

Responsibilities

  • Set the segment and sub-segment strategy, defining growth priorities, customer focus areas, use cases, and growth ambitions.
  • Own segment P&L performance, including revenue, POS, growth, investment returns, and portfolio contribution.
  • Build and evaluate investment cases, making informed trade-offs across commercial priorities.
  • Partner with Sales Leadership to agree strategic priorities, quarterly plans, and performance outcomes.
  • Define customer value priorities for product roadmaps and influence product prioritisation and launch decisions.
  • Represent the segment externally with customers, partners, and industry bodies, shaping the market narrative.
  • Lead a matrixed virtual team, establishing decision ownership, governance, and accountability.
  • Drive evidence-based decisions to scale, pivot, or stop initiatives and investments.

Requirements

  • Commercial leadership experience within SaaS, information services, data, or technology-led businesses.
  • Experience with direct P&L or business-unit ownership, including growth, margin, and investment decisions.
  • Deep understanding of customer segments, buyer needs, workflows, and competitive environments.
  • Strong track record of developing strategy and prioritising effectively in complex environments.
  • Ability to lead matrixed teams through influence and collaborate effectively with Sales leadership.
  • Expertise across propositions, pricing, packaging, and business case development.
  • Experience influencing product roadmaps within product-led organisations.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to present clear options and recommendations to senior leadership and boards.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
