We’re excited to share that Daniel Peace, Principal at Dartmouth Partners, has been quoted in Private Equity News, offering his perspective on one of the biggest challenges facing the private equity industry today: securing the best talent in an increasingly competitive market.

The article, “Private equity’s need for top talent has never been greater,” explores how firms are grappling with market headwinds – from tougher fundraising conditions to fewer exits – while still needing exceptional people to unlock growth and deliver returns.

“The demand has grown, whilst supply has remained constant, and so looking to identify and hire the top 10% has been very competitive,” Daniel explains.

At Dartmouth, we see firsthand how critical it is for firms to adapt their hiring strategies to current conditions. Our teams work closely with clients across private equity and alternative investments to identify, attract, and secure the best talent – from analysts just starting out to seasoned leaders ready to step up and drive growth in challenging times.
