Case Study: a European private equity firm gains market intelligence and hires a Senior Investment Director with March Consultants

European Private Equity Firm - Customer Case Study

A European private equity firm engaged March Consultants to search for a Senior Investment Director for its UK team and to gather crucial market intelligence on competitor innovation in team structure and compensation. The client's challenge was to attract top talent while simultaneously future-proofing its investment team with vital industry insights.

March Consultants conducted a detailed two-month market assessment, speaking with approximately 50 senior investment professionals at competing firms. They compiled their findings into a detailed report for the client. This process also enabled March Consultants to proactively identify and target a select group of potential candidates for the role. The result was that the client gained valuable inside intelligence to inform its hiring and retention strategy and is now in advanced discussions with a senior leader to be finalized soon.
