Melbourne-Based I Private Equity Backed I High-Growth Services Sector


Six Degrees is proud to be partnering with a private equity-backed organisation at a pivotal point in its growth journey. Operating in a high-demand essential services sector, the business delivers mission-critical support to a wide and growing client base. With a strong brand reputation, year on year profitable growth, recurring revenue base, and ambitious growth plan, the company is well-positioned for continued scale, innovation, and value creation.

As Chief Executive Officer, you will work closely with the Board and shareholders to shape and execute the next chapter of growth. You’ll lead a capable executive team, bring rigour to operations, elevate financial performance, and drive cultural alignment across the organisation. With a dual focus on strategic clarity and operational excellence, the CEO will oversee transformation initiatives—including organic expansion, M&A, and digitisation—while ensuring the business remains agile, client-focused, and ready for future capital events.

We're seeking a values-driven experienced CEO with a proven track record in scaling B2C services businesses, ideally with prior exposure to private equity (PE) environments. You will bring exceptional leadership, sharp commercial acumen, and an ability to lead change through others. We're seeking a proven executive from a regulated, service-based industry—someone who has led large, distributed teams and delivered strong commercial and operational outcomes. Ideal backgrounds may include health services, allied health, aged care, franchised personal services, or high-trust outsourced sectors such as facilities, security, logistics or commercial staffing. A mix of commercial drive, operational depth, and values-based leadership is key.

To express interest, please reach out to Nick Hindhaugh on 0422 141161 at Six Degrees Executive or apply via the link. Confidential enquiries welcome.
