ABOUT THE ROLE

The Director, Portfolio Operations is responsible for improving the financial and operational performance of firms across our portfolio. This role is deployed into priority firms for defined transformation engagements, working directly with firm and regional leadership to diagnose performance issues, develop improvement plans, and drive execution through measurable results. The Director will focus on EBITDA expansion, margin improvement, cash flow, organizational effectiveness, and sustainable operating practices. This is a hands-on transformation role requiring strong financial acumen, structured problem solving, program leadership, and the ability to influence senior stakeholders without direct authority.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Develop actionable transformation plans with clear initiatives, owners, milestones, financial targets, and expected benefits.

- Drive implementation from initial diagnostic through execution, benefit realization, and sustained adoption.

- Identify opportunities to improve EBITDA, margins, realization, utilization, staffing leverage, working capital, and cost structure.

- Build and manage integrated workplans, workstreams, milestones, dependencies, risks, and executive reporting.

- Partner closely with Managing Partners, COOs, Regional Leadership, and functional leaders to build alignment and accountability.

- Lead organizational design, right-sizing, process improvement, technology implementation, workforce planning, and operating model initiatives as needed.

- Track realized financial benefits against the transformation business case and intervene when initiatives fall behind.

- Establish operating routines, controls, and performance measures that sustain improvements after an engagement concludes.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
