Executive search for operators in PE-backed essential services. Built around your trajectory, not a pipeline.
Start the conversationA bigger title at the wrong stage of platform. A larger comp package with the wrong sponsor cadence. An equity ticket that vests through three years of misalignment. The seats that derail trajectories are the ones that look like the next step on paper.
The right seat sits in territory the deal sheet can't capture. A sponsor whose value-creation thesis matches what you actually build. A mandate clear enough on day one to survive a bad quarter. A platform at the stage where your skillset creates leverage instead of friction. The seats that compound trajectories sometimes look sideways on paper. They're the ones where the equity ticket actually converts.
We help operators find the right seat.
Senior operators rarely want to broadcast they are looking.
We keep you visible to the PE firms running live searches. The platforms planning the next hire. The operating partners building out a portco leadership team.
Without going public. Without a post. Without a signal to your current seat.
Every interview stage comes with a proprietary prep pack.
Who's in the room. What they measure. The pain points shaping the decision.
Built by people who know the platform, the board, and the sponsor behind it.
Real comp, equity, and severance benchmarks for your seat.
What the market is actually paying versus what it opens negotiation with. Platform stage matters. Sponsor strategy matters. We show you both.
The data most search firms hoard, you get to read.
Compensation. Equity. Change-of-control. Severance. Reporting lines. Title scope.
We negotiate the things you would not think to ask for.
Because we know what the market will actually pay for seats like yours.
The conversation does not end when the search does. Whether we place you or not, you stay in our network.
Market intelligence when it matters. A direct line back in when you need one.
You are not a name we drop when the fee closes.
