Bespoke Partners, the leading executive search firm for private equity portfolio companies, today announced the relocation of its headquarters to Austin, TX.

The firm was founded in 2011 and since inception had been headquartered in San Diego, where it built its functionally specialized executive search model serving private equity-backed software and SaaS companies nationwide.

The move reflects the firm’s continued growth and follows a major expansion of its New York City office earlier this year to locate its search professionals in proximity to private equity firm clients and portfolio companies.

Likewise, the relocation to Austin strengthens Bespoke’s proximity to leading private equity firms focused on software and SaaS and the portfolio companies they back. Bespoke originally opened an Austin regional office in 2016 and last year opened in an expanded, new location with 39 employees.

“Austin is a center of software innovation and private equity activity, along with great recruiting talent,” said Eric Walczykowski, CEO of Bespoke Partners. “We built Bespoke differently, with a functionally specialized search model designed specifically for private equity portfolio companies. Establishing our headquarters here positions us for our next stage of growth and deepens our presence in one of the most important markets in technology.”

Bespoke Partners will continue to maintain a strong presence in San Diego, where the firm was founded, in addition to operating offices in San Francisco, Philadelphia, and New York serving clients across North America.
