Placement Story

Pacific Executive Search successfully placed an experienced finance leader within an innovative Bay Area venture capital firm. The candidate, boasting a decade of experience in investment management, fund operations, and financial reporting, was promptly positioned to fill a vital role within the finance team. Despite the stringent requirement for VC/PE fund accounting experience, the candidate's proven expertise in fund accounting and proficiency in QuickBooks and Allvue Systems were invaluable. Now working primarily remotely with occasional travel to Southern California, he is a key contributor to the dynamic finance function, supporting audit and tax processes, reviewing financials, and providing strategic insights to the CFO.
