Hey guys,
Wondering if any of you monkeys and gorillas know of any executive search firms that either specifically work in finding PE Operating Partners, or have a pretty dedicated practice in this space?
Even more specific, if you know of any that work with CIOs (Information, not Investment), that would be much appreciated.

same question...actually related to operations teams within PE, not especially at a partner level....
I would recommend either Russell Reynolds Associates or Spencer Stuart. They have their consultants' profiles and areas of expertise online.
any others? anyone else confirm these are the main two?
Heidrick and Struggles is definitely on par
Second this. Worked with H&S in the past, they have been very helpful in identifying former C-Level execs of sponsor run businesses.
