"Altima is our go-to search partner for VP of Finance and CFO roles across our portfolio in Europe. John and his team are not only incredibly well connected to the CFO community and thus can bring candidates to their searches, but they are also some of the best partners to steer founders through the tricky search phases, never losing sight of the ultimate goal to find the right candidate for the role. Their ability to clearly articulate the kind of finance leader needed for each company/stage/sector, and to become a storyteller and ambassador for their clients, are hugely valuable and differentiating in the market"

Sandra Schwarzer
