Hetmos is currently seeking to back an operator to lead the build-up of a pan-European platform focused on financial audit and business consolidation services.
This is an execution-led acquisition strategy: acquire and integrate profitable audit and financial services firms across multiple European markets, then scale through disciplined operating and commercial expansion.
Investment Thesis
- Fragmented European market with clear consolidation potential in audit and adjacent advisory services.
- Strong margin profile in specialized financial service lines with recurring client demand.
- Value creation through integration discipline, cross-market deployment, and operating leverage.
How the Hetmos Co-Investment Model Works
- Hetmos co-invests alongside the lead operator in each acquisition.
- Performance-linked structuring (including earn-out and LBO mechanics) supports scalable expansion.
- Turnkey transaction process for target identification, valuation, and integration planning.
- End-to-end execution support to accelerate revenue capture post-acquisition.
Platform Support for Growth
- Access to a European network of finance, audit, and business development experts.
- Financing support for acquisition programs and follow-on growth initiatives.
- Optional preparation for strategic exit or IPO pathways with relevant market partners.
- Operational and commercial support capacity, allowing leadership focus on strategic scaling.
Operator Profile
- Entrepreneurial leader with the ambition to build and manage a multi-country services group.
- Strong execution discipline across transactions, integration, and team leadership.
- Financial services or audit exposure is valued; strategic judgment and learning velocity are essential.
