Serving middle-market and investor-backed companies

We partner with investors and middle-market companies to place proven finance executives in mission-critical roles that support growth, governance, and successful outcomes across the ownership lifecycle.
Who We Serve
PeakPitch works with lower to middle market organizations where finance leadership plays a direct role in enterprise value, operational discipline, and investor confidence.

Venture and growth equity-backed businesses
Family offices and institutional investors
Founder-led and middle-market operating companies
We support organizations navigating post-investment integration, rapid growth, operational transformation, professionalization, and preparation for a future liquidity event.
Finance Leadership That Drives Value
In middle market and investor backed environments, senior finance leaders are far more than stewards of reporting and compliance. They serve as strategic partners to CEOs, boards, and investors shaping decisions that directly impact performance, scalability, and exit readiness.
As organizations grow or change ownership, the right finance leadership becomes a core driver of value creation. PeakPitch focuses on placing executives who can operate effectively across complexity, growth, and high-stakes decision-making.
