Portfolio Leader

Job Title: Portfolio Leader Location: Multiple (US, UK or Canada) Employment Type: Full-time Company: Solen Software Group About Solen Software Group Solen Software Group is an investment and operating company that acquires and operates proven software businesses with significant growth potential across a variety of vertical markets, enabling each to become a market leader in its niche. Solen's portfolio spans Human Resource Technology, Fleet Telematics, Asset Management, E-Health, Document Management, and other innovative software solutions. Solen is backed by a group of advisors and investors who have built software businesses of material scale (10–100M in ARR) and have advised many more. We are at the beginning of a decades-long journey, and every decision we make reflects that long time horizon. About the Role We are seeking a Portfolio Leader to own the performance of a cluster of Solen's portfolio companies. This is not a single-company operating role — you will sit above individual General Managers, orchestrating results, capital, and talent across multiple P&Ls at once. The Portfolio Leader we're looking for has already run a company at the GM/CEO level and is ready to scale that judgment across a portfolio. You will set and defend performance targets across companies, allocate attention and capital to where they matter most, develop the next generation of GMs, and act as a business guide on M&A for new companies joining your cluster.

You will report to an Operating Partner and be a key part of how Solen scales its operating model. About You At Solen, it is Day 1 of a journey that will last decades.

You are ready to own outcomes across multiple businesses at once: setting the bar, allocating resources, and building the leaders who will run them. You bring: A track record of running a P&L at the GM/CEO level, with strong, demonstrated results. Comfort setting and defending financial targets — GRR, NRR, Rule of 40, and Bookings Health Score (BHS) — across more than one business at a time. A sharp instinct for capital allocation: knowing where a dollar of investment or attention will do the most good across a cluster of companies. Experience developing and coaching other operators; a track record of building bench strength, not just hitting your own numbers. Exposure to M&A — able to serve as a business-side guide on diligence and integration for companies joining your portfolio. Comfort operating in a lean, fast-moving environment — scrappy and decisive, not reliant on large teams or heavyweight processes. An ability to translate performance and trade-offs into clear narratives for GMs, your Operating Partner, and…
