Markets shift and transform, but business remains driven by one thing: human talent. At L&E Partners, our job is to facilitate mutually beneficial introductions that connect our private equity clients with high-caliber executives who can create value within our clients’ new and existing investments.

L&E Partners is a boutique, national executive search/consulting firm that develops targeted CEO introductions for a select group of private equity firms. Our objective is to create and nurture the right interactions that ultimately can lead to maximum investment returns.

Collectively, for the past 50 years, the principals of L&E Partners have cultivated long-term relationships that unite talented, backable CEOs with private equity-driven acquisition strategies. Our success is rooted in providing private equity firms with proven operating executives to confidently invest in new and existing portfolio companies. With these talented operators at their sides, our clients are better equipped to source, diligence, and transact new investments.

Our non-traditional approach encompasses a highly focused recruitment process driven by a thorough understanding of diverse industry sectors and an intricate working knowledge of private equity processes. This perspective has made us a unique and dedicated resource for private equity firms looking to expand their reach into the corporate ranks, recognizing the value created by aligning themselves with qualified operating executives.
