Energy is where Hazeltine started in 2015 and remains our most experienced practice. We began placing Accounting and Finance leaders in PE-backed upstream oil and gas companies. Midstream, energy transition, and CleanTech followed, all by referral. We place finance, technical, geoscience, and land roles, and we work nationwide, across every U.S. basin.
Energy → Industrial →We understand sponsor timelines, board expectations, and value creation plans. Fund-level finance hires, portfolio CFO and finance team buildouts, and interim CFOs for transitions, transactions, and exits. When the hold period is the clock, speed and certainty win.
Private Equity →Discreet placements for complex, long-term capital structures. CFOs, Controllers, investment operations leadership. Your standards and confidentiality stay protected. Ask about the family office that spent 12 months and 68 candidates elsewhere before we closed their CFO search in a few short months.
Family Offices →From entrepreneurial to institutional without losing what made it work. First CFO, first Controller, professionalization of the finance function, and interim leaders who've done the buildout before.
Reporting rigor, investor scrutiny, board dynamics. CFO, CAO, Controller, VP Finance, VP Investor Relations, plus interim technical leaders when the reporting calendar won't wait.
