Leadership Coach needed to mentor new CFO
A PE firm principal came to us with a critical need for a CFO consultant for their manufacturing portco. Since their seasoned CFO left the company around a year ago, a young, less experienced CFO entered the leadership role. Having never been a CFO before, the firm needed an executive coach who could provide the young CFO with leadership training and serve as a mentor to them to help them get up to the speed of a C-suite role. The firm urgently needed someone with experience as a CFO in a PE-backed company, knowledge in the alcohol beverage manufacturing field, and who was willing to be onsite for 20 hours a week.
