ECI Partners Appoints Neal Griffith as CFO Designate
ECI Partners, the leading mid-market private equity firm, has announced the appointment of Neal Griffith as CFO designate. Griffith joins from pan-European private equity firm, Equistone Partners Europe, where he was CFO and Chief Risk Officer, having joined as Group Financial Controller in 2017. Prior to Equistone he was Fund Financial Controller for investment firm, BC Partners. His appointment to CFO will follow the retirement of incumbent, Philip Shuttleworth, at the end of the year, after almost 30 years with ECI.
Griffith comments: “ECI’s successful track record and future plans made for a very attractive proposition, so I am excited to be joining the firm. The opportunity to spend time with Philip before he retires will be extremely helpful and I look forward to working alongside him over the coming months.”
Chris Watt, Managing Partner at ECI, comments: “We’re delighted to welcome Neal to the team at ECI and I look forward to working with him as he transitions to the CFO role over the course of this year, taking over from Philip. His experience will be invaluable as he joins ECI at an exciting time, with capital to deploy and off the back of a fantastic track record of exits.”
Philip Shuttleworth comments: “I’m delighted to be transitioning the CFO role to Neal. He is a talented individual and it’s great to know that ECI will be in safe hands as it enters its next growth phase.”
