Hatch announce former Dovetail marketing VP as CRO
AI-powered jobs employment platform Hatch has appointed Dovetail’s former marketing vice president, Tom Mansfield, as its new chief revenue officer.
Before Dovetail, Mansfield was a marketing director at payment technology company Visa Inc in San Francisco.
In his new role, he will oversee Hatch’s go-to-market strategy, marketing, sales, and customer success functions to help young jobseekers find work with brands, including Qantas, Westpac and Woolworths, via a proprietary AI-powered job matching algorithm.
“Hatch is solving a huge problem, and that really excites me,” Mansfield said.
“Using machine learning to better match employers and candidates has the potential to completely flip the job-seeking experience from a negative to a positive one, and I have a lot of heart for it.”

Hatch made headlines in February when it announced a $7 million seed fundraise, led by Australian venture funds Rampersand, Alberts Impact Ventures, Aura Ventures, Jelix Ventures and Investible, as well as private investors, including former Latitude and Australia Post boss Ahmed Fahour.
Hatch co-founder and CEO Adam Jacobs, who previously founded The Iconic, said: “We have an ambitious product vision and needed to find a growth leader who knows how to bring disruptive digital products to market in the age of AI.
“Tom’s experience growing high-performing growth teams in successful startups over recent years will be an incredible asset for us as we embark on the next phase of the business”.
