Private Equity/ VC
The Executive Headhunter Group started as an executive recruiting firm 15 years ago. Client- customers include high technology companies, Medical device and Bio Pharmaceuticals, turnaround and restructuring firms, finance companies, advisory service, private equity groups, law firms and investment bankers. Today we placed over 550 executives!
We are an executive recruitment firm who for the last ten years has an executive placement rate of 70.6% working directly for an executive. 2009 results were 88%, 2010 at 73% and 2011 77%. Following are the opportunities we provide for all executives:
Traditional executive recruitment searches
Traditional W-2 executive level placements- Private Equity/Venture Capital owned placements
- Portfolio and managing director placements with PE/VC groups
Identify MBO targets based on your industry experience
- Executives who have identified a company they want to acquire but lacking capital
Working with consultants and wealth advisors who have client-customers in need of capital Private equity firms and strategic buyers looking for platform and add-on acquisitions Capital resource for businesses
For a nominal retainer fee, The Executive Headhunter Group presents the executive to industry relevant companies at no cost to the employer. We give the box away for looking for the residual recruiting work from that executive once fully able and in place. With so many companies no longer willing to pay a recruiter’s fee, this creates a tremendous way to get introduced to hiring authorities. We will also identify companies in need of capital with the premise of the executive leading the business. At this stage, The Executive Headhunter Group engages our network of private equity firms and strategic buyers.
Because The Executive Headhunter Group works with business leaders and consultants who have firsthand knowledge of capital needs, we now operate as a “business recruiter” for hundreds of private equity groups and strategic buyers that invest in businesses with annual revenues from $10 million to over $1 billion. These investors realize the value of our contacts for relevant deal flow.
For those who have a network of capital resources, perhaps we can still be of value to you. The Executive Headhunter Group assisted the former CEO of a Cincinnati, OH based Fortune 500 consumer brand company that was looking to raise capital for a business he used to own. Current management was seeking $10 million to recapitalize the business to buyout a non- strategic owner. His challenge was his PE contacts were large-cap firms that “were not going to get out of bed for a $10 million deal.” In these instances, because we work with small-to-mid cap buyers, we were a fit for his needs.
As a business recruiter, whether we place an executive with a company or a company with an investor, the process is very similar. As such, The Executive Headhunter Group works with buyers who finance executives looking to run a business but lacking acquisition capital (MBO opportunities).
Perhaps you know a senior level executive who is in a career transition and is finding it difficult to identify new employment through traditional channels. What if they changed their focus towards identifying a company they believe they can lead based off of their industry experience, competitive insight, and firsthand knowledge of the target company? The Executive Headhunter Group will match the acquisition executive with buyers who finance such opportunities. This is an excellent way to drive an executive’s career path.
