Firm needs top interim CHRO for fast growing portco
A managing director came to us with a critical need for an interim CHRO for their software portfolio company. Having recently experienced meaningful growth through M&A, the portfolio company urgently needed a top interim CHRO to act as a strategic HR partner to the CEO and Board during the integrations. The managing director was looking to match the portfolio company with an interim CHRO who could drive cultural alignment, improve organizational design, support M&A integration, and engage a deeper pool of talent, among other things. They quickly needed a specific hire, with PE experience, industry knowledge, and M&A background.
