Human Capital Valuation Advisors

Private Equity / Venture Capital Partnerships

Who We Are

Human Capital Valuation Advisors (HCV Advisors) was created after identifying gaps in the lower to middle-market for talent expertise. Most Private Equity and Venture Capital firms focus on talent acquisition for their investments/portfolios, but few have an in-house expert capable of owning and driving it. They find it difficult to substantiate hiring a full-time resource based on existing volume of searches or needs, which results in either the absence of this valuable resource or having to pay top dollar to outsource to multiple vendors.

HCV Advisors was developed to offset the need for a permanent resource for PE/VC firms. In essence, HCV Advisors becomes their strategic Talent Partner offering a one-stop shopping for services – Search Execution, Talent Management, Leadership Team Assessments, Organizational Reviews, Contact Database Management and Business Development.

We offer our clients customized solutions utilizing an annual subscription-based model at almost zero cost to the firm. With 25 years of Executive Recruiting, Talent Research, Assessment and Consulting expertise, HCV Advisors is ready to be your strategic business partner. Contact us today to discuss how we can create a customized solution to address the needs of your firm and its investments.
