Unlocking Human Capital for Private Equity & Alternative Investments
Built by insiders - expert executive search led by seasoned alternatives professionals
About AltSearch Partners
Who we are
Founded by professionals with deep, hands-on experience within the private equity and alternative investment space. Having worked at some of the industry’s most respected institutions - including HSBC, BlackRock (Preqin), Pantheon Ventures, Goldman Sachs, S&P Global, and more - we bring a practitioner’s perspective to executive search. We’ve built our expertise from the inside, across a range of functional disciplines across both the front, middle and back office.
Unlike traditional search firms, we’ve sat on all sides of the table - as Limited Partners, General Partners, and within portfolio companies themselves. This gives us a unique vantage point on what clients truly need, and what top talent is looking for. We don’t just recruit for alternatives - we’ve lived it. We speak the same language, understand the nuances, and know how critical it is to match the right people with the right mandates.
We stay closely aligned with industry trends, having actively worked through the current wave of digital, operational, and fundraising transformation in private markets. From implementing tools like eFront, Dynamo, and Webfolio, to supporting capital raising efforts, due diligence processes, co-investment structuring, and portfolio monitoring, we understand the evolving toolkit shaping today’s alternatives landscape. Whether it’s front-office systems or fund structuring conversations, we’ve been part of the execution - not just the theory - and bring that insight into every search we conduct.
