Our unique methodology includes a Panel of Chief Executives and Chairmen with significant track records of achievement covering all major sectors and markets in times of both expansion and contraction.

In challenging times businesses need leadership and depth of experience in its key executives, none more so than with the Chairman and Chief Executive. Stakeholders cannot take risks with unproven directors. They need people who have been there before and achieved successful outcomes. This is the strength of the PILOTpartners business model – using tried and tested senior executives for challenging and difficult situations and business transformation projects.

• Demonstrable expertise in managing enterprises in difficult situations.

• Experience of managing boards in private equity portfolios.
