Consumer Technology
Consumer technology leadership searches combine two things that don’t always sit in the same candidate: genuine product and engineering credibility, and the commercial instinct to build a business around it. ASTC recruits product leadership, engineering heads and business unit leaders for consumer technology companies operating in India and, through our EMEA practice, in international markets.
We look for candidates who have shipped products that real consumers use at scale, not just internal tools or B2B platforms, and who understand the specific dynamics of a consumer technology business — user acquisition cost, retention, the pace of iteration a competitive market demands.
Because this category attracts candidates from adjacent tech sub-sectors as readily as from direct competitors, market mapping matters more here than almost anywhere else: knowing who exists, not just who has applied, is what actually produces a strong shortlist.
Tell us the role. We'll tell you honestly whether we're the right firm for it.
A first conversation takes about 30 minutes and costs nothing. You'll leave with a view of the market for that role the talent pools, a realistic compensation band, and how long the search should take whether or not you appoint us.
