At Portage Point Partners (Portage Point), you are not a cog in a legacy machine, you are shaping strategy, influencing outcomes and being rewarded for driving impact. Backed by New Mountain Capital, Portage Point is recognized for accelerated growth and is consistently featured in rankings from Inc.5000, The Financial Times and Consulting Magazine. This recognition is a testament to our focus on excellence, intensity and pace and ability to attract blue chip talent committed to delivering best-in-class outcomes. Our cross-functional platform spans the full business lifecycle and offers middle market clients integrated solutions across Transaction Advisory Services (TAS), Valuations (VAL), Transaction Execution Services (TES), Office of the CFO (OCFO), Performance Improvement (PI), Interim Management (IM), Investment Banking (IB) and Turnaround & Restructuring Services (TRS).

The PI team partners with private equity sponsors, lenders and corporates to drive value creation, performance enhancement and transformation across the business and investment lifecycle. This high-output, low-ego team delivers strategy through execution that is tailored to each client’s needs.

The Senior Director role at Portage Point represents a unique opportunity to assume a wide range of responsibilities and make a significant impact. This Senior Director is a critical leader within the Performance Improvement practice, focused on advising private equity clients on human capital strategy across the deal lifecycle – from HR due diligence through value creation planning and post-transaction execution. The Senior Director will report directly to the Practice Leader and partner closely with deal teams, operating partners and portfolio company leadership to assess people-related risks and opportunities, inform investment decisions and design and implement scalable HR operating models. This person will lead key initiatives, manage discrete workstreams and work closely with senior leaders. If you thrive in a high-performance culture and want to help build the future of a rapidly growing consultancy, this is the right role for you.
