Paladins Consulting Group partners with founders, boards and executive teams to unlock growth, rebuild margin and professionalize operations — from the first ninety days through the exit.
Most advisory work ends with a deck. Ours ends with a business that runs better — because our partners stay in the room until the change is operating, the numbers have moved, and your team owns it without us.
We are a full-service management consulting group built for companies between $5M and $50M in revenue, plus the private equity sponsors, family offices and boards behind them. Senior people do the work. Every engagement carries a defined value target, a named partner, and a fixed timeline.
More about the firmThe partner who scopes your engagement runs it. No bait-and-switch to a first-year analyst once the contract is signed.
Every engagement opens with a value hypothesis and a baseline. We report against it monthly, in your language, not ours.
We install the operating rhythm, train your leaders on it, and document it — so performance holds after the invoice stops.
Real problems rarely stay inside one function. We staff mixed teams so strategy, operations, finance and technology move together instead of in sequence.
Where to play and how to win — grounded in your actual cost to serve, not a market report.
Take cost out and put throughput in, without breaking the promises you have made to customers.
Structure, incentives and leadership capacity that match the company you are becoming.
Systems selected for the way you actually run — then implemented with the process work done first.
Cash, controls and clarity — the reporting a lender, a board or a buyer expects to see.
Diligence that tests the thesis, and integration planning that starts before the wire clears.
You will know at the outset what we are testing, what we will deliver, what it costs, and how we will both know whether it worked.
We go straight to the evidence: financials, systems, customer data, and candid conversations with the people who actually run the work. You receive a written diagnostic — the constraints, the size of the prize, and where we would place our own money first.
We build the plan with your leaders in the room, not for them in a back office. Every initiative gets an owner, a dollar value, a sequence and a set of leading indicators — so the plan can be managed weekly rather than admired quarterly.
Execution is where consulting usually stops and where we do our best work. We sit inside the operating cadence, unblock decisions, keep the value tracker honest, and escalate early when a workstream is drifting.
We transfer the tools, train the owners and step back deliberately — then return on a light-touch cadence to confirm the gains held. The measure of a good engagement is that you need us less next year.
If one of these describes your last two board meetings, the first conversation will be a useful one.
Revenue is up and everything else is straining — systems built for half the volume, a leadership team covering three jobs each, and a founder who is now the bottleneck on every decision.
Revenue holds but profit does not follow it. The monthly numbers arrive too late to act on, and every department has a plausible explanation that points at a different one.
You are buying, selling or refinancing inside a year, and the reporting, customer concentration and management depth will not survive the diligence they are about to meet.
We would rather lose the work than sell you a project we do not believe will pay for itself.
Florida's economy is not an abstraction to us. We staff engagements with people who have carried a P&L in your sector — and who know its regulators, its seasonality and its labour market.
