Interim & Fractional Senior Operating Leadership for Mission-Driven Organizations.

Accelerate Your Growth through experienced operating leadership, decisive execution, and hands-on partnership.

PK Growth Partners steps into interim and fractional CEO, CMO, and Chief Growth Officer (CGO) roles, partnering with leadership teams, boards, and investors to help organizations execute through moments of growth, transition, and complexity — without adding a permanent executive.

WHEN ORGANIZATIONS ENGAGE PK GROWTH PARTNERS

Organizations, including private equity partners and boards, most often engage PK Growth Partners when:

  • Growth has stalled or needs acceleration

  • The business is scaling faster than leadership capacity

  • A transition, turnaround, or transformation is underway

  • Experienced operating leadership is needed without a full-time hire

HOW WE ENGAGE

PK Growth Partners provides hands-on, embedded interim operating leadership through:

  • Interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Growth Officer (CGO), or Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) roles

  • Fractional executive leadership

  • Custom operating projects during critical inflection points

  • Active partnership with boards and investors

We operate as a player-coach — working alongside leadership teams to clarify priorities, align organizations, and drive results.

OUR APPROACH

PK Growth Partners brings a rare combination of entrepreneurial leadership and big-company operating discipline.

Our work is shaped by hands-on leadership roles at entrepreneurial organizations such as Honest Tea, Newman’s Own, No Kid Hungry and grounded in best practices developed at Coca-Cola, Diageo, Danone and Nestlé.

This blend allows us to move quickly, bring fresh perspective, and execute with rigor — particularly in environments where resources are constrained and outcomes matter.
