<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">CHALLENGES</span></h3>
<p>The search presented several key challenges.&nbsp;<br>1. Location<br>Wilmington, North Carolina's location was not awash with the calibre of talent required, which the successful candidate Rachel had to relocate.</p>
<p>2. Skill set<br>Alongside the location, the skill set of multi-site management, private equity-backed experience, and M&amp;A have brought about a small niche of people capable of undertaking this appointment.</p>
<h3 data-pm-slice="1 1 []"><span style="color: #e03e2d;">HOW RAW SELECTION OVERCAME THESE CHALLENGES</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>Extensive PE Residential Services Market Mapping</li>
<li>Intensive interviewing of the right talent</li>
<li>Refinement of search mandate, according to market feedback</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THOUGHTS ON THE CANDIDATE</span></h3>
<p>Rachel is an exceptional PE experienced Operator; having a track record of successful M&amp;A integration, Revenue &amp; EBITDA Growth; &amp; culturally galvanising portfolios to set and drive strategic vision. As an industry expert, the talent&rsquo;s market knowledge and network is second to none. The talent can liaise with all levels of ownership and management to deliver consistent results.<br>&mdash; Sean Butt, Senior Associate</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE CLIENTS THOUGHTS</span></h3>
<p>We reached a point where one of our businesses needed more leadership. Due to explosive growth we could no longer manage under the current organizational structure. We engaged Raw Selection who has sound experience in our space to find the right GM with the right Culture Index profile coupled with industry experience. Within just a couple of weeks, Raw identified the right talent, expedited the interview process with our team and soon after we had the right person in the right seat doing the work that really matters. For CHS this was a critical and timely hire and Raw delivered.<br>&mdash; Paul Adams, CEO, Columbia Home Services</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE CANDIDATE THOUGHTS</span></h3>
<p>I would like to give &ldquo;props&rdquo; to Mo for identifying this General Manager role in North Carolina and reaching out to me to gauge my interest. Being from Texas, this was a big proposition &ndash; relocating. I would have never applied for the position since it wasn&rsquo;t in my current geographical area. Mo was very supportive throughout the entire process. It was an extensive process that moved rather quickly, and Mo was by my side through everything. He communicated often, updating me as things were progressing. Being on the other side, you don&rsquo;t know what is happening if the recruiter doesn&rsquo;t update you, which can prove to be very frustrating if you are not kept in the loop. Luckily this wasn&rsquo;t the case with this endeavor. Overall, it was a great experience, and I did accept the new position. On top of that, I got everything that I was asking for in the employment package. It was definitely a WIN-WIN experience. I highly recommend Mo to help you succeed with your next career move.<br>&mdash; Rachel Hagler, General Manager, Columbia Home Services</p>

<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE REASON FOR THE SEARCH</span></h3>
<p>There was not an urgent need for the company to start expanding their team. However, Raw Selection has a strong presence in a similar field as the Private Equity firm, and when we understood that they were planning to expand, we reached out, and they expressed a desire to work with us.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE PRIVATE EQUITY FIRM</span></h3>
<p>Ridgemont</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE PORTFOLIO COMPANY</span></h3>

<li>Experience in managing large-scale field services operations, optimizing processes, and delivering cost synergies using Lean Six Sigma methodologies</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">WHY RAW SELECTION</span></h3>
<p>The Private Equity firm was having trouble seeking someone who fit the search requirements. They needed someone highly qualified, had a proven track record in managing successful exits, mergers, and acquisitions, and was adept at operating within comparable industries. Due to a lack of clarity regarding the specific desires and requirements of the client, the selection of profiles we presented was smaller than our usual searches.</p>
<p>However, we continued to maintain consistent communication with the candidate during the entire recruitment process and successfully obtained a comprehensive understanding of their qualifications and alignment with the organization&rsquo;s objectives. From this, we were able to present them with a candidate that fit the exact requirements and was an excellent culture fit.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE PROCESS</span></h3>
<p>Raw Selection went above and beyond in this search for a VP of Integration by following through with the 15-step process and developing a strong rapport with the candidate, thereby facilitating a candid exchange of thoughts and enabling effective communication with the client. We also offered comprehensive assistance and guidance to the candidate, prioritizing their comfort and well-being throughout the entirety of the process.</p>
<p>Overall, Raw Selection completed a very successful search within one week. The company now has a VP of Integration to drive the business forward and bring it to new heights.</p>
<p>Raw Selection commences every search by discussing and understanding the full search requirement and brief. Raw Selection&rsquo;s Senior Associate, Mohammed Vali, led the search, and with the cooperation of the hiring managers, they built out a full picture of the company, the employees, the culture, and exactly the type of profile that was needed to succeed in this position.</p>
<p>Raw Selection followed our extensive 15-step search process. However, we had already found an individual who was a great fit, and therefore the process was shortened, and we were able to present a candidate immediately. Raw Selection identified an exceptional individual, Lia Bosma, who was subsequently hired for the role.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;">THE RESULTS</span></h3>
<p>Raw Selection completed the search efficiently and successfully. The new VP of Integration is expected to drive the business forward and contribute significantly to its growth.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;"><strong>THOUGHTS ON THE SEARCH</strong></span></h3>
<p>The quest for Lia proved to be exceptionally rewarding, given her exemplary character and distinguished professional trajectory. Serving in the capacity of Vice President of Integration, Lia boasts a profound and well-rounded professional background. Her wealth of experience, coupled with remarkable interpersonal acumen, underscores her expertise. Particularly noteworthy is her exceptional proficiency in guiding and executing integration processes within the context of mergers and acquisitions. Throughout the recruitment process, Lia consistently exhibited a profound interest, complemented by effective communication skills and a poised demeanor.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #e03e2d;"><strong>THE CANDIDATE'S THOUGHTS</strong></span></h3>
<p>"Mohammed has been a wonderful partner, working with me through this recent job search. He is a great communicator: from making time for thorough conversations on opportunities available to providing timely updates as I progressed through the hiring process. I was impressed by how he was able to quickly move the process along through his expert facilitation between me and the interviewers. Once both sides realized the fit was right, Mohammed enthusiastically worked through the details of an offer that was agreeable and closed the deal for us. He was easy to talk to, responsive, and had a wonderful attitude throughout. I'm certain that without partnering with Mohammed and Raw Selection, I'd still be looking for a role!"</p>

<p>In terms of bonuses, 60% of CFOs received less than 50% as a bonus, with the lowest at 10% and the highest up to 90%. This suggests a broad spectrum of bonus structures tailored to individual company performance metrics. Additionally, the increase in equity participation to 70% in this revenue category underscores the growing emphasis on equity as a key component of executive compensation, fostering long-term commitment and alignment with business outcomes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
