Financial services and fintech executive search

Board, CEO and C-suite searches for banks, fintechs, investors and real estate firms.

Where we search in financial services.

From community banks to venture-backed payments companies, every search runs on the same assessment standard.

  • Banking

    CEOs, CFOs and senior leaders for banks, including community banks that need a thorough C-level search without a large internal team.

  • Payments & Fintech

    Executives for payments and fintech companies, from growth-stage businesses to established platforms.

  • Private Equity

    Board and C-suite leaders for private equity firms and the private equity-backed companies they own.

  • Venture Capital

    Leaders for venture capital firms and the high-growth companies they back.

  • Real Estate

    Board, CEO and senior leadership searches for real estate firms.

Retained search, decided on evidence.

Every serious candidate goes through Aperture 360 before you meet them: a structured interview, a behavioral assessment, role-specific competency questions and a job-fit benchmark against your role profile.
