Compensation : Inheritly is on a mission to make estate and legacy planning radically simpler, smarter, and more human. We’re building the global platform for digital legacy planning - one that integrates seamlessly into financial advice journeys, helps families plan with clarity, and unlocks lifetime value for advisers.
We’re starting with a sharp wedge into the UK IFA market - empowering advisers with a compliance-friendly, client-centric planning tool that improves engagement and drives product conversion. Our Alpha MVP is live, and we've secured strong design partner interest. Backed by ARK Venture Studio and Eagle Venture Fund, we’re now looking for a CEO to take the reins and scale Inheritly into a category-defining company.
Yet it touches every family and every financial journey. As CEO, you’ll join at a defining moment: an alpha is built, the first market segment is targeted, and early backers are aligned. You’ll lead Inheritly into commercial launch, scale product-market fit, and build an iconic brand that changes how families prepare for the future.
We’re seeking a mission-driven, commercially astute CEO to lead Inheritly into its next chapter. You’re driven to delight customers by reimagining how legacy planning should work - not just improving a broken system but fundamentally disrupting it. Founder or operator-executive experience in a B2B SaaS, fintech, or wealthtech business.
Deep sales acumen, with a proven track record of leading GTM from zero: building commercial models, closing design partners, driving adoption, and generating early revenue.
Demonstrated VC literacy – you understand fundraising dynamics, investor expectations, and board management.
Experience with regulated markets such as financial advice, insurance, or legal tech.
Lead the company’s strategic vision, execution, and commercial delivery.
Translate the long-term vision into near-term deliverables with urgency and focus. Build a larger sales pipe to convert over the next 18-24 months including expanding to a broader range of partner types (e.g. mortgage brokers, banks)
Validate the Inheritly unit-economics and demonstrate the ability of Inheritly to deliver recurring revenues
