Is anyone familiar with the process with how LMM/MM PE firms source operating partners? I know a good amount of it comes through networks and referrals, but am more curious on what people do when dealing in an unfamiliar industry where they don't have connections. Are there services or third-party operating partner networks that they tap into and does anyone know of any?

bump, anyone have experience around this?
Operating Partner here.....there are a couple of models depending on the type of operating role. As you correctly state – networks and referrals are important.
Do you guys also have Operating Managers / a role that sits under OPs and helps drive value creation in the portfolio?
Yes and no...our firm is not huge so we have a very flat organization and even if some people make more than others - titles are the same
