Private equity and financial services

A partner through the whole investment


As market conditions have changed, private equity has become a larger part of our practice. We understand the talent and skills needed to lead companies through every stage of the life cycle, from early-stage startups to upgrading the management team of a portfolio company.

We have supported major private equity firms at every stage of their process:

  • Providing market intelligence, current talent evaluation and competitive positioning on a consulting basis, drawing on our extensive network.
  • Pre-investment evaluation of a company's human capital, leadership and culture.
  • Identifying and recruiting executives at every level who can quickly transform portfolio company performance.
  • Planning long-range talent resources, both inside and outside the company.

Working with us

Every engagement is fully retained and personally led by a Managing Director. On average, you will see your first group of candidates within three weeks of our kickoff meeting.
