  • Assess portfolio-company performance and identify value-creation opportunities.
  • Develop and execute initiatives across revenue growth, pricing/GTM, sales effectiveness, cost, working capital and operations.
  • Track performance against the investment case and value-creation plan, identifying reasons for underperformance.

  • 10-15+ years of relevant experience.
  • Prior PE / Portfolio Operations / Value Creation experience strongly preferred.
