Eastward Partners, a leading executive search and human capital
consultancy, announced its acquisition of Press and Associates
today.
NEW YORK, July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Eastward
Partners, a leading executive search and human capital consultancy,
announced its acquisition of Press and Associates today.
"Eastward's proprietary research tool, ECHO®, and its human
capital research function are where our clients will see so much
value. There is no one out there in the search industry who
leverages data like this."
Press & Associates, founded by its namesake, Paul Press, in December
2016 to be a leading search firm that exclusively supports
Private Equity firms, and their portfolio companies hire
executive-level talent across the technology function. Prior to the
acquisition, the firm became renowned for supplying tech leadership
talent across PE-backed portfolio companies and building firm-level
value creation teams for large cap Private Equity firms.
The alignment of the firm's shared markets with differing
functional focus was obvious to Eastward's Adam Szepkouski, Chief Operating Officer and
Board Member, who made the introduction.
Joe Carbone, CEO Eastward
Partners, commented on the acquisition:
"Having admired Paul's work from afar and referring each other's
services when a specialist hire was required for our clients, the
time came when it made sense to join forces. We have a lot of
commonalities among our network, and both share an unrelenting
drive to provide exceptional service. Our operating models are
similar, and we work extremely well together, so it made sense for
both parties."
Paul Press commented on the value
Eastward offers:
"Eastward's proprietary research tool, ECHO®, and its human
capital research function are where our clients will see so much
value. There is no one out there in the search industry who
leverages data like this. In addition to Press & Associates'
extensive experience serving our clients, we'll be able to leverage
comprehensive human capital data and analytics research to provide
a market-leading and unparalleled executive search service. I'm
delighted to be able to bring such value to my clients and join the
Eastward journey."
Carbone continues with plans for the future:
"We're building an exceptional team to service our market and
continue our ongoing expansion plans. This is the start of our
roadmap to continue working with the best Executive Search
Professionals and add value to a wider array of clients with our
search and research capabilities."
Eastward Partners will continue to be headquartered in
New York City, with offices in
Miami, San Diego, Chicago, and London (UK).
