Private equity
We understand that strong financial performance and value creation relies heavily on great leadership. But it’s not just about the right CEO, or the right CFO, although they’re critical. It’s about assessing the roles that drive value and ensuring you have the best people for them, doing what it takes to accelerate individual and team performance, building optimal structures, processes and culture that aids growth and the firm to successfully achieve its goals.
Our team are the human capital partners you need and dovetail with private equity firms to drive value and maximise ROI through our people and leadership services throughout the whole deal lifecycle. You can engage with us from exploration to exit – or at the stages you need additional value-creating support.

When we can help
“Guy [Garnett at NSCG] came to know my business almost as well as I do, and I trusted his instincts completely. The assessment process went below the surface, identifying and exploring patterns of behaviour, strengths and potential derailers all supported by real life examples. The team provided a very useful sounding board during the search process, and I've ended up with two excellent members of my team.”
Honor Barratt, Managing Director

“We work with NSCG on human capital due diligence and find them to be credible, value-adding and totally professional.”

How we can help
We provide the data-driven talent insights and expertise you need to inform your human capital strategy and help you make critical decisions about people with confidence.
There is fierce competition for proven leaders with the required skills. Whether it’s executive independent consultants skilled in managing due diligence or advising institutional investors on complex investment thesis or permanent leaders able to define and execute on strategy in a constantly changing environment, our human capital experts have deep knowledge and insights of the sector and those that work in it to help you find the leaders that will make the difference.
Whether it’s for selection or succession, pre or post deal, our leadership assessments give you objective, in-depth, actionable insights so you can make informed decisions about who to hire and identify which leaders have the highest potential for success.
PE firms often have accelerated promotion prospects yet lack the structured development pathways of corporate organisations.
Whether you’re looking to develop individual leaders or entire boards, our development programmes are designed to ensure leaders are successful in their role – both today and tomorrow.
We apply psychological understanding, commercial insight, and leadership development experience to create personalised programmes that will bring leaders’ talents to life and help them deliver business goals.
What drives team effectiveness changes as the business changes. Whether it’s fast-track team development, impact facilitation or team coaching, we aid in setting teams up for success and ensure they’re able to maximise value creation at each stage of growth.
PE firms need the best talent. The only way to ensure that is to place diversity, equity and inclusion front and centre of organisational and people strategies. We don’t just diagnose what you could do better. We will work with you to develop a clear plan of action and then work alongside you to help deliver the change.
