## Track record since leaving service

Seven years in manufacturing finance, most recently as controller for three plants totaling $310M in revenue, reporting to the CFO of a private-equity-backed platform. Led the finance integration of two bolt-on acquisitions inside a single fiscal year, consolidating four charts of accounts into one and closing the first combined month on schedule. Found and corrected an inventory costing error that had overstated gross margin by 240 basis points for six quarters, then rebuilt the standard cost process so it could not recur. Twelve years as a Marine Raider before business school, including two tours as a company commander.

## Why we represent this candidate

Every candidate we put forward has cleared three filters, not one: academic
achievement, service in U.S. Special Operations, and a documented commercial
record after separating. This profile is here because all three are verified —
the third is the one most veteran-hiring pipelines never check.

## What happens when you ask for an introduction

We confirm the fit against your actual requirement before anyone's time is spent,
then make the introduction directly. If this candidate is not right, we will say
so and tell you who in the pool is closer.
