building boards & management teams for investor backed businesses

Danny Vanner, Founder & Managing Partner

Hello, I’m Danny, Founder of search firm Equity Executive which for over a decade now have been building boards and management teams for investor backed businesses across the UK.

Being passionate about business I am privileged that for my work I get to meet ambitious business leaders and investors, learn about their high potential and high growth companies, understand their key challenges and provide the right leadership solutions.

Business leaders and investors choose to work with my firm for two reasons:

1. we truly understand ambitious, investor backed businesses and the challenges they face, scalability challenges, financial challenges, leadership challenges and market challenges and we know how to help clients identify, attract and recruit the leaders they need to overcome their challenges and achieve success, leaders who are strategic and growth focused, financially, commercially and operationally astute, investor smart and exit smart.

2. we provide an exceptional level of service and return for clients. In terms of level of service, we run rigorous searches with urgency, so for each search typically we conduct 100+ hours of research, consider and approach 100+ prospective candidates, shortlist within 3 weeks of engagement and help our client secure their preferred candidate within 6 – 8 weeks of engagement. In terms of the return our clients see, clients receive an exceptional service but without the excessive overheads, we do not charge the earth, we work to a fair and largely results based fee structure.

Outside of business I enjoy spending my time with family, travelling, dining out, watching my beloved Tottenham Hotspur through my fingers and attempting to play golf.
