Our private equity client is looking for a professional in the Testing and Compliance Industry with deep CEO/C- Level operational experience and expertise, to help with due diligence and take a senior role (most likely as CEO or Executive Chairman) in a potential new acquisition to be found in collaboration with the executive. This would include regulatory compliance, equipment certifications, equipment calibration, etc.
This position will be remote, with some traveling required until the acquisition target is found and finalized, and then may require relocation depending on the circumstances and ultimate org chart position of the executive in any new portfolio company.
Please note: Our PE clients are control group buyers of businesses, not passive investors nor VCs. They value companies based on a multiple of TTM EBITDA. They do not invest in startups nor early-stage companies. They also do not buy companies based on multiples of top-line nor do they have expectations for “unicorn” type growth that VCs typically do.
**This opportunity is for a new platform opportunity, and not for an existing portfolio company of the PE client. If you are looking for a paid operating position in the near term, this program does not offer that and will not be a fit with your search.**
**Prefer candidates who have an industry thesis and perhaps target acquisitions identified**
