Danny Vanner, Founder & Managing Partner
I’m Danny Vanner, Managing Partner at Equity Executive. I founded the firm in 2016 and for the last decade I have been working with business leaders and investors recruiting new leadership for their companies.
I understand the challenges ambitious, investor backed businesses face, scalability, financial, leadership, talent and market challenges and with this insight I know and help my clients recruit the types of leaders they need to make their businesses successful. My focus is on helping clients recruit:
Leaders who are ambitious as to what is possible for the business within the timeframe of its investment and will work at pace to make it happen
Leaders who will develop an effective growth strategy by addressing revenue growth, operational efficiencies, investment in talent and technology, acquisition opportunities and possible paths to exit
Leaders who will nurture good relationships with investors by understanding what investors want and providing investors with the insight they are looking for
Leaders who will put the business on a sound financial footing for growth by prudently managing investment, lagging growth, cash flow, heavy reporting and debt servicing requirements
Leaders who will put the business on a sound operational footing for growth by consistently developing and upgrading talent, technology, systems and processes
Leaders who will scale the business by developing innovative product suites, building strong commercial functions and effectively utilising teams across the business in pursuit of immediate milestones and strategic goals
Leaders who will sell the business by getting it sale ready, positioning it favourably to potential acquirers, managing due diligence and playing a key role in negotiating a good price for shareholders
