Private Equity

 

Here are a few reasons why we're passionate about working with private equity firms:

 

We're on the clock...

...portfolio company hold periods are limited - so months, quarters or years of lost EBITDA performance cannot be recovered.  We understand that every $1M of lost earnings is worth 5-10 times that amount depending the trading multiple for a particular business. 

 

The right fit...

...can be difficult to achieve.  We thrive on finding management team candidates who are capable of value creation in the specific backdrop of a strong governance model, a leveraged balance sheet and a finite timeline of opportunity.

 

The stakes are high...

...because a hiring mistake can literally cost a portfolio company millions of dollars of lost enterprise value. 

 

The bar is high...

...for talent standards.  There is a reason the better PE firms outperform the broader markets -- the talent is superior to what we see in traditional corporations and lesser performing PE firms.

 

Our clients are rigorous...

...and require the highest levels of service and performance from a search firm.  Simply put, we do our best work for our most demanding clients.
