A lower-middle market private equity firm sought a unique finance professional for its construction portfolio company. This role required a hybrid skill set – half data analyst and half finance expert – to identify key performance indicators and supplement the leadership team.
The challenge lay in sourcing a candidate who not only possessed a balanced mix of data analytics and finance skills but also had familiarity with the South region. The firm was looking for a boutique, experienced search firm, open to a retained search arrangement, to identify this specialized professional.
BluWave used its extensive network to identify a finance executive search firm that specialized in boutique and regional hiring within the construction and engineering industry. This firm was tasked with identifying a candidate who could dive deep into business analytics while also handling finance responsibilities effectively.
The successful placement of a hybrid finance professional marked a significant enhancement to the company’s leadership team. The new hire brought a combination of data analysis acumen and financial expertise, focusing on identifying and managing key KPIs, vital for the strategic development of the company.
