Variner is a search firm dedicated to discovering best-in-class intellectual capital in both conventional and unconventional channels.  We believe human capital is the differentiating factor in our clients' success, and we are resolute in our approach to identify this talent.

We partner with mid-market principal investing firms, growth equity funds, family offices, and corporate M&A/Venture teams to help identify and qualify investment professionals that are well-suited for their investment style and culture.

In addition to principal investing, we also help our clients’ management teams and senior leadership with select portfolio company searches including; corporate development, corporate finance, and strategic operations.

At Variner, we believe that a well-executed search is more than a process; it's a methodology or series of processes.  These processes don't start and end with one search, in a vacuum.  They are a state of mind.  They are methodologies that are ever present and constantly on-going in our consultant's lives and work product - submitted candidates.
