Job description

Job Summary

As the CEO, Head of Global Services, you will join a group of hands‑on executives to drive the growth and operational excellence of Toptal. Your mindset will be that of an engineer who will work to solve operational problems through the lens of an engineer, not as a consultant or operational leader. There will be no problem large or small for you to solve yourself. You will be the chief architect of each solution. You will work to construct frameworks and problem‑solve in ways that push the limits of what’s possible in technology and talent acquisition and that solve those problems at scale. You will work to build and lead the full‑scale execution of Toptal’s professional services—including all Professional Service‑related areas such as all Delivery and Practice areas. You will have complete responsibility for the strategy of Toptal’s service lines including Technology Services, Management Consulting, and Marketing Agency.

This is a remote position. Resumes and communication must be submitted in English.

Responsibilities

  • Build and own the vision, strategy, and execution plan for Toptal’s services function—including all service lines.
  • Define the organizational structure and leadership model for the Services teams, ensuring the right roles and capabilities are in place.
  • Provide hands‑on operational leadership, bringing rigor, consistency, and clear accountability to all service lines and functions.
  • Translate high‑level business and operational goals into detailed operational roadmaps for all areas of responsibility.
  • Establish scalable processes and systems to ensure delivery excellence, efficiency, and client satisfaction at scale.
  • Partner cross‑functionally with Product, Marketing, Finance, and Legal to execute on strategic priorities and company‑wide initiatives.
  • Drive a high‑performance culture across all functions and businesses, while ensuring we are tightly aligned to support delivery excellence, scalability, and evolving business needs.

Qualifications and Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree is required. Master’s degree in Engineering, Business, or a related field preferred.
  • 10+ years of progressive leadership experience in managing complex service organizations and multiple business units, ideally within professional services or technology‑driven environments.
  • Proven track record of successfully leading multi‑service line operations with accountability for P&L, growth, and operational excellence.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop and execute scalable operational strategies that drive efficiency, client satisfaction, and sustainable growth.
  • Experience at a technology or hyper‑growth company is strongly preferred.
  • Management consulting experience at a top‑tier firm (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG) or investment banking experience is preferred but not required.
  • Exceptional strategic thinking and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to make data‑driven decisions in ambiguous environments.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, capable of influencing stakeholders at all levels, including executives and clients.
  • Experience driving cross‑functional collaboration and alignment across sales, marketing, delivery, and support functions.
  • Excellent organization skills and detail‑oriented. You are hyper‑organized, know how to work efficiently, and prioritize execution, as well as mentor others to do the same.
  • Adaptable. Comfortable managing changing priorities, learning new skills, and building consensus across varied senior stakeholder groups.
  • Ownership. You are a dependable leader who takes responsibility for your success as well as the success of the entire team.
  • Quality. You take pride in everything you deliver as a reflection of yourself.
  • Ability to work in a fast‑paced, rapidly growing company and handle a wide variety of challenges, deadlines, and a diverse array of contacts.
  • Willingness to travel to meet with clients, team members, and stakeholders.
  • You must be a world‑class individual contributor to thrive at Toptal. You will not be here just to tell other people what to do.

    • Essential Job Functions

  • Regularly and reliably attend scheduled virtual team meetings on camera.
  • Work independently with minimal supervision.
  • Use all required digital collaboration tools.
  • Prioritize and self‑manage workflows and deadlines.
