Sector Focused

New York City and the surrounding metro area (including Northern NJ, Westchester, and Connecticut) is home to one of the densest concentrations of consumer health and CPG executive talent in the United States. Major nutrition, supplement, and consumer health companies — including Church & Dwight, Prestige Consumer Healthcare, and numerous PE-backed supplement platforms — are headquartered in or near New York City.

The New York market is particularly important for C-suite and senior VP searches, where the candidate pool of executives who have managed $100M+ nutrition brands is concentrated. Private equity firms based in New York have made substantial investments in the supplement and nutrition category, creating strong demand for executives who understand both the operational complexity of the industry and the financial performance expectations of PE ownership.

The PE-Backed Nutrition Market in New York

A significant portion of the nutrition and supplement industry's private equity activity is driven by firms headquartered in New York. Executives who understand how to operate in PE-backed environments — managing rapid growth, preparing for EBITDA-focused reviews, and driving toward exit-ready performance — are among the most sought-after profiles in the New York nutrition market.

  • CEO / President for PE-backed nutrition platforms
  • VP and SVP of Sales (national retail, international)
  • Chief Financial Officer
  • VP of Marketing and Brand (national CPG)

  • Business Development and M&A leadership

Compensation in New York

New York-based executive roles command the highest base salaries in the nutrition sector. VP-level positions typically range from $190K–$255K in base salary, with total compensation including bonus frequently exceeding $300K at larger companies. C-suite packages at PE-backed brands are highly variable and often include meaningful carry or equity.
