Co-founder and CEO – Procurement SaaS for the Construction Industry

Co-founder and CEO |Procurement SaaS for the Construction Industry

We are seeking a co-founder to change procurement in the construction industry through better technology. The ideal candidate is an experienced leader with a proven track record in scaling SaaS businesses and driving enterprise sales. As CEO, you will lead the development and growth of a cutting-edge procurement platform that transforms how the construction industry manages purchasing, sustainability compliance, and cost optimization.

About The Startup:

Our platform is reshaping procurement for project-oriented businesses in the construction sector, starting with the installation industry. We provide unprecedented control and transparency by connecting companies with optimal suppliers based on their framework agreements, enabling informed decisions that balance cost efficiency with environmental impact.

The platform streamlines operations by automating EU sustainability compliance documentation and providing real-time LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) calculations. It intelligently suggests material alternatives to optimize emissions or costs while maintaining comprehensive invoice control and cost tracking capabilities. Through sophisticated framework agreement optimization, businesses can make informed decisions that align with both their financial and environmental goals.

We've built this solution because we recognize that traditional construction practices significantly contribute to climate change and resource overconsumption. As new EU sustainability regulations reshape the documentation needs in the industry, our platform ensures businesses not only comply but thrive in this evolving landscape, giving them a competitive advantage.

Starting with the installation sector, we're addressing critical pain points in a complex procurement market, with a clear vision to expand our impact across the broader construction industry. We're looking for a leader who shares our commitment to driving meaningful change through technology and can help scale our solution to its full potential.
