About NextGen Growth Partners

NGP is a private equity firm that partners with entrepreneurial talent to invest in, operate and grow lower middle market businesses.

About the role

The Executive in Search (EIS) program is designed for senior operators with deep industry experience who want to pursue acquisition entrepreneurship with significant flexibility, strategic autonomy, and the backing of an institutional partner. In contrast to our CEO in Residence (CIR) program, this is a part-time program that may coincide other full-time commitments with an initial 12-month commitment.

What they're looking for

  • Former CEOs, Presidents, General Managers, or P&L owners
  • Executives with strong industry networks
  • Experts with a clearly defined sector thesis
  • Operators seeking equity ownership and long-term leadership of a business they acquire
  • 15+ years operating experience with P&L ownership
  • Interest in acquiring within outsourced B2B services industries that align with NGP's criteria
