Private equity refers to investments made in private companies, where investors provide capital in exchange for equity ownership.


Private equity refers to investments made in private companies, where investors provide capital in exchange for equity ownership. It’s a form of alternative investment that can help companies accelerate growth, expand operations, or make strategic acquisitions. For UK companies, private equity can be particularly attractive because it offers access to significant capital, strategic guidance, and industry expertise that can fuel their growth ambitions.

Private equity CFOs are strategic leaders who strive to raise their company’s profile, engage with new talent, and attract the attention of private equity investors by creating an engaging investor story.

CFOs with PE experience are growth-oriented, adopting a forward-looking approach, instead of looking through the rear-view mirror as financial often do. Private equity CFOs are multi-dimensional with a growing list of responsibilities. Many are set to become tomorrow’s CEOs, laying the groundwork by engaging with internal and external stakeholders.

Organisations seeking private equity investment are increasingly recruiting CFOs during the early stages of their life cycle. CFOs with private equity house experience will drive value and nurture rich working relationships by boosting the company’s financial credibility with potential investors and traditional financial institutions.

Companies seeking private equity funding in highly regulated industries, such as financial services and health care, will want to recruit a CFO who is an expert in that field. CFOs with industry-specific regulatory knowledge will understand the nuances and challenges that their company must contend with.
