Chief Executive Officer Search
KNiON was tasked with finding a CEO for a disruptive, early-stage Edtech startup. We had previously worked with the founder to build their leadership team, and the organisation remains one of our close partners, having gone from a concept to a team of 40 during that period. The founder, who we had previously partnered with on key hires for his primary venture, came to us with a vision – a platform which offered free-at-use healthcare training to anyone, anywhere. What they needed to achieve this vision was a dynamic, keenly commercial and high-calibre CEO, who could take an existing infrastructure to the next level, building out a team and taking a fully-fledged product to market.

The ideal candidate needed to combine extensive knowledge of customer success, experience and sales with an understanding of the South African market to cement AnyVan’s presence.
