At your level, 80% – 90% of jobs are never posted. They open and close with hardly a whisper.
There is a whole world out there where investors buy companies that are in trouble. They fix them and sell them. Well, that’s to say, they don’t fix them. They look for fixers to fix them.
Let’s create Moneybags Inc. — a PE firm. They’re on the lookout. They’ve watched Company W go from bad to worse. And yet, W is a great idea. Moneybags has done its due diligence, proving W should be a success. So, the honchos at Moneybags make the owner(s) of W an offer.
A deal is struck. Now, guess what Moneybags Inc. needs? They need you. You appear on the scene and say, “Hey, I’m your person” because just like Moneybags, you’ve been on the lookout too for this type of challenge.
Let me introduce Nicholas — a CEO for business turnarounds.
Described as having a command of P&L, leadership development and the customer, he’s called on to advise private equity firms with companies in troubled markets to reposition them to profitability.
He’s led the sales and operations functions for a global Fortune 200 company. He was also responsible for 8250 employees and $14B in P&L for an iconic consumer retail giant.
Nicholas is ready for his next project.
Using Westgate’s CV distribution service, he presented his CV to 4895+ private equity firms across Canada and the US and has positioned himself as the next CEO of Company W., now a Moneybags Inc. subsidiary.
