Conexus Expands Its CFO Talent Solution to New York and Connecticut Offices

Conexus Expands Its CFO Talent Platform on the East Coast

Conexus, a prominent name in interim and executive human capital solutions, has made a significant move by establishing its first offices on the East Coast in New York and Connecticut. This expansion is spearheaded by Partner David Erickson, a seasoned expert within the Office of the CFO domain, bringing years of experience in providing both retained and interim solutions to clients.

David has proven himself as a leading performer over numerous decades, particularly skilled at supporting private equity portfolio companies. The new East Coast team will focus on catering to both national private equity clients and businesses in the local tri-state area, leveraging Conexus's strong existing client base.

This venture marks Conexus's second market expansion in 2026, following the opening of an office in Salt Lake City earlier in the year. The firm's CEO, Mike Kelly, expressed enthusiasm about this new office, highlighting the importance of finding the right leadership to effectively serve the specific needs of private equity clients. He stated, "We are incredibly excited to have David Erickson join our team. We held off opening a New York office until we found the right leader with the expertise to serve private equity portfolio companies while also delivering unmatched Office of the CFO interim and executive search solutions. With David at the helm and our strong East Coast team, we are poised to make a major impact."

Originally focused in California, Conexus is enacting a strategic plan aimed at enhancing its presence in crucial U.S. markets, particularly centering on human capital leaders specialized in the Office of the CFO and private equity sector. With over 1,000 consultants engaged in mission-critical projects and more than 400 successful searches completed in just the past year, Conexus has firmly established itself as a reliable resource for finance and accounting, technology, and HR support at managerial positions and higher.

The New York and Connecticut offices are expected to significantly bolster Conexus’s momentum and expertise, providing customized solutions aimed at rapidly growing private equity portfolios across the East Coast. This strategic expansion aligns with Mid Ocean Partners' investment in Conexus, marking a pivotal point in the firm’s growth trajectory. MidOcean, recognized for its investments in the human capital sector, considers Conexus a vital component of its portfolio focusing on markets showing clear growth potential.

Through this expansion, Conexus aims not only to enhance its service delivery but also to create a significant impact in the East Coast market, ensuring that clients receive tailored solutions that meet their specific needs as they navigate the complexities associated with private equity investments. The future looks promising for Conexus as they continue to broaden their reach and influence in the human capital industry, committed to providing top-notch interim consulting, advisory, direct hire, and executive search services in finance, accounting, technology, and HR.
