CFO: Private-Equity Backed SaaS Company
THE CHALLENGE
A Washington D.C. based, Private Equity backed $20M SaaS company was on the verge of explosive growth and needed a CFO to take the financial infrastructure to the next level and prepare the company for a large and likely last fundraise before going public. They needed someone who had experience in a fast growing SaaS company, with the outside financial community, and ideally with M&A or IPO experience. Lastly, they needed someone as soon as possible.
The Strategy
We focused on senior financial executives in the greater D.C area who had the requisite experience, but most importantly, who had the drive and would fit in the fast paced culture. The CEO needed a CFO who would challenge him, and would have the ability to work with an active board.
The Results
We successfully recruited a CFO with high growth SaaS company experience, who also had public company experience. The opportunity to take the company public was an option for the company down the road. We were able to complete this challenging, time-sensitive engagement in just over two months.
