Use case
Interim CEO for Private Equity
A seasoned operator in the CEO seat of a portfolio company, executing the value creation plan under sponsor pressure.
In short
An interim CEO for private equity steps into a portfolio company to stabilise leadership, drive the value creation plan, and bridge to a permanent CEO, with full accountability to the sponsor.
Built for the PE timeline
Sponsors cannot afford a leadership gap mid-hold. We move fast, align the plan to the investment thesis, and report cleanly. Having run a turnaround as CEO, we are comfortable with the pressure and the numbers.
As CMO of LeoVegas, we ran a EUR 120M marketing budget, delivered EUR 50M incremental revenue in under 12 months, and lifted EBITA by 18 percent. This work was instrumental to an exit north of EUR 607M to MGM. Earlier, as MD of an Italian market, we grew revenue from EUR 3M to EUR 18M in under a year.
Value creation, not caretaking
An interim CEO here is not a placeholder. We execute the 100-day plan, fix what is broken, and set up the permanent leader for success.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can an interim CEO start?
Within days when needed. PE situations rarely allow a slow start.
Do you report to the board and sponsor?
Yes. Clear reporting to the board and the sponsor is part of how the engagement runs.
Is this an on-demand interim CEO for portfolio companies?
Yes. For PE sponsors we place an on-demand interim CEO into a portfolio company in days: to hold the seat after a founder exit, run a 100-day reset, or de-risk a value-creation plan while the search for the permanent CEO runs in parallel.
