“In our work with top tier private equity firm clients, we learned how hard it can be to benchmark your portfolio company talent and be sure your team is the best it can be,” said Eric Walczykowski, Bespoke’s Chief Executive Officer. “We’re solving that problem with this new report. We’ve captured a decade of learnings in executive placement and leadership advisory projects and are making that knowledge available today.”
The report is the first of an ongoing series that will explore trends in the leadership talent market for private equity. The inaugural edition covers:
- Compensation trends and benchmarks, including which roles are leading the way to the $500,000 per year cash compensation milestone.
- Macro events shaping supply and demand of leadership talent in private equity software and SaaS and how the tight talent market was affected in 2022.
- Leader turnover trends across the sector and in specific functional areas, including when each leadership team member is likely to change based on deal timing and other factors.
- C-suite and senior manager trends and which roles are being "leveled up" based on company stage.
- Emerging C-suite leadership roles and their impact on a portfolio company and its execution on value creation.
