Top of Minds Executive Search for Company Webcast

The organization

Company Webcast specializes in top-quality webinars and webcasts. With more than ten thousand live webinars and webcasts per year, they are a supplier to most publicly traded organizations in Europe. Company Webcast has over fifteen years’ experience in this area – in other words, they specialized in webcasts before webcasts became mainstream.

Company Webcast has a range of solutions in their portfolio. For example, they have live studios in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Brussels, Paris, and London. Four more studios will be opened in Sweden, Germany, and France, for clients to record webcasts in a professional setting. Clients can also record and broadcast in-house: with the support of a project manager, or through a remote solution.

Company Webcast is part of pan-European stock exchange company Euronext. Subsidiary Euronext Corporate Services (including Company Webcast) helps clients improve their investor relations, communication, governance, and compliance. Company Webcast is the European market leader in webcasts related to investor and financial communication, with a sixty percent market share. Their goal is to become the biggest international network for all webcasts in scope.

The company experienced major growth during the pandemic, when businesses had to switch to digital communication formats. Furthermore, there was a need for intensified communication due to changing market and organizational dynamics. At present, the challenge for Company Webcast is to maintain this momentum and to ensure that clients continue to appreciate the value of webinars and webcasts in general.

The position

Company Webcast makes hosting truly professional webinars and webcasts possible for over seven hundred mid-size and large companies across Europe. Clients include organizations like Heineken, Signify, and Rabobank. The company aims to become the biggest international network for webcasts, under the leadership of the new, strategic Managing Director.

Tasks & responsibilities

The Managing Director will be responsible for Company Webcast’s P&L and the performance of its team. The Managing Director will continue Company Webcast’s success in existing markets, while also managing growth through international expansion.

This may encompass opening new studios and building local commercial teams – while staying ahead of competition. The Managing Director will also be responsible for expanding and developing the product portfolio in a relevant and distinctive way, and continuously improve the platform. To keep it in line with clients’ needs and market trends, things like interactivity, added features, and connection with in-house systems are in scope. Lastly, the Managing Director is responsible for the integration and alignment with the broader Euronext organization.

“The strong product-market fit and robust organization are an excellent starting point for international growth. This is a great opportunity if you seek entrepreneurial adventure, while heavily expanding your skillset and expertise.” – Mathieu Caron, Head of Listing and Corporate Services at Euronext

The Managing Director will manage the excellent commercial teams (sales, marketing, and product), with a total of fifty people and counting. These teams are in turn led by several direct reports who together form the management team. The Managing Director will also manage a smooth integration with Euronext in the domains of finance, HR, and legal. Tech and operations are divided across central Euronext teams and the Company Webcast organization. Recruitment is part of this responsibility. The international team members are mostly (but not exclusively) based in the Netherlands. The Managing Director will be a member of Company Webcast’s executive board, together with the two founders and the COO, and participate in Euronext Corporate Services’ management team.

From a content perspective, the Managing Director will developt he product vision for Company Webcast. This vision should be based on industry developments and innovative ideas from the teams. From a leadership perspective, the Managing Director will also ensure that back-office tasks and processes are correctly handled, in part with external advisors and central Euronext functions.

This role is an excellent opportunity for someone with an international background in digital media, communication, investor relations, strategy or management consulting, or another service-heavy environment. The candidate should have successfully developed or expanded a business internationally, or started one from scratch. This is a leadership role in the wider Euronext Corporate Services environment, with regular exposure to the upper management.

Candidate profile*

  • Over 10 years of experience 
  • In B2B sales 
  • And in general management
  • Within the service industry or technology
  • Commercially driven 

* Research shows that while male candidates feel confident enough to apply when they meet about 60% of the requirements, female candidates only apply when they tick every box. So if this role has your name on it, but you’re not sure about the criteria, we still want to hear from you.
