Placement Story

Pacific Executive Search successfully placed a seasoned Controller with a strong background in public company accounting and proven expertise in Oracle ERP environments for a private equity-backed real estate firm. This crucial hire, with over ten years of leadership experience and a track record of accelerating close cycles, significantly strengthened the company's financial infrastructure. Despite the challenge posed by the sudden vacancy of the previous Controller during the holiday season, the candidate's exceptional skills in consolidated financial reporting, SEC reporting, and cross-border finance integration made them the ideal fit for this on-site role in Southern California. They quickly stabilized and improved the financial transparency of this mid-sized, diversified corporation with operations in farming, real estate, and mineral resources.
