Ben brought a new level of finance and M&A acumen to our company’s BD effort. He led the build out of a large format M&A team and took lead on the execution of NVA’a largest acquisitions. Additionally he raised the level of analytics applied to our higher volume / small format acquisitions effort enabling our ability to generate strong ROI on the over 150 acquisitions closed annually.
Ben meshed well and advanced our servant leader culture, building strong relations through the company and engendering the loyalty of his team. After a hard push he would sometimes send a note of appreciation (or bottle of scotch) to each on his team. His down to earth style was also well received by coworkers and veterinarians alike.
Ben is well prepared from here to successfully lead an M&A team in many different capacities - including CDO of a roll-up, lead of M&A shop for a larger / multi-national corp and/or lead of product /industry group in within sell-side advisory."
