Operandi Talents

Our savoir faire

Executive search & Talent advisory unleash your business’
full-potential

We deliver, for corporates and PE funds (large, mid, small cap and family-offices), both critical internal long-term talents via executive search mandates & high-caliber independent consultants/interim professionals for impactful external leverage, to drive long-lasting business success.

We work with a curated network of leadership talents with strong track records in PE funds, success in PE-backed companies and high-growth corporates, and/or strong operational and sector/function expertise. Most of our candidates have strong analytical backgrounds from early careers in strategy consulting, investment banking, M&A, PE and/or audit.

Our team delivers your key hires across France, Benelux, and Europe via three services: executive search mandates, interim management (6-24 months), and independent consulting projects (less than 6 months) which can also be combined with Operandi.Strategy.

pre-deal to exit

CEOs and C-suite executives of high-growth corporates & PE portfolio companies

We execute critical hires from CEOs who drive your business ambition to C-suite teams, including general management and functional leadership (CFO, COO/CTO, head of strategy and M&A etc.). Then we support them with independent talents to:

  • Activate strategic enablers & professionalize major corporate functions (Transformation office/PMO, finance, M&A, data, ESG etc.).
  • Deliver your Value Creation Plan, buy & build strategy, integration and PMI.
  • Drive top-line growth (internationalization, sales/GTM, salesforce effectiveness, pricing etc.) & operational / performance improvement (operation excellence, procurement, supply chain etc.) programs or carve-out / restructuration.

Investment professionals & Operating partners in PE funds

We strengthen deal and operating teams, including structuring ops team from scratch specifically designed to your portfolio balancing generalists (typically ex Tier-1 consutants) and functional specialists (incl. sales, go-to-market, finance, M&A, ESG, data, procurement etc.) to execute your investment thesis, drive performance and maximize portfolio potential throughout your fund lifecycle.

M&A and transaction support professionals

Ensure end-to-end execution of transactions in your M&A pipeline (deal sourcing, origination, negotiation, vendor and commercial due diligences, closing and carve-out) and deliver your buy-and-build strategy with dedicated M&A professionals (often former investment bankers, PE and TS professionals) keen to drive the integration and development of fast-growing companies.
