01

Scaling in Renewables

A renewable energy platform preparing for a national roll-out came to FOUND to help build out its leadership bench. The company needed executives who could oversee structured finance, operations, and O&M while aligning with the founders’ long-term sustainability vision.

Through our proprietary network and targeted outreach, FOUND placed a Director of Operations and a Structured Finance leader, both of whom accelerated revenue growth and enabled the company to attract additional institutional investment. The placements were made under tight timelines, with candidates sourced, vetted, and hired in under 60 days—setting the foundation for the company’s next stage of scale.
