Norbert Orth

Before joining Pamlico Capital in 2018, Orth was Chief Operating Officer of Viewpoint, a Portland-based construction software firm leading the transformation of the industry with integrated construction accounting and project management solutions. Orth led over 350 employees worldwide, held over $125m of revenue responsibility and was instrumental in driving a 20% YoY increase in recurring revenue. Orth worked closely with Bain Capital, owners of Viewpoint, consummating in an acquisition by Trimble in July 2018 for $1.2B.

Prior to Viewpoint, Orth was CEO of Dexter + Chaney, a Seattle based construction software firm (acquired by Viewpoint in 2017), where he successfully led the company through a period of rapid growth. Orth transitioned the firm to SaaS while rebuilding the executive team and implementing a winning sales & marketing playbook that leveraged a hybrid direct/indirect model. During Orth’s time with Dexter + Chaney the company more than doubled revenues while driving best-in-class retention rates, CSAT and nearly 30% EBITDA.

Prior to Dexter + Chaney, Orth held a variety of executive leadership roles to include CEO of venture-backed MessageGate, VP Sales at WRQ (acquired by Francisco Partners, Golden Gate Capital and Thoma Bravo, merged with Attachmate) and Regional Director at Procter & Gamble.

Orth serves as a board member and mentor for several software companies and is involved in numerous philanthropic organizations.
