Suzanne Harp named Managing Director in Texas, USA - 105

DALLAS — STS Capital Partners is pleased to announce the appointment of Suzanne Harp as a Managing Director. A strategic advisor and sell‑side M&A specialist, she brings over two decades of experience guiding mid‑market companies through growth, generational transitions, and successful exits. From launching start‑ups to implementing growth strategies that enhance recurring revenue, Suzanne emphasizes structuring operations to withstand due diligence and facilitate a successful exit. With experience in identifying and highlighting key drivers of attractiveness and enterprise value, she firmly believes in the STS approach of identifying the "Rembrandts in the Attic" for every business, realizing true potential value by Selling to Strategics™.

Suzanne has personally led 17 mid‑market sell‑side mandates ranging from $2M to $35M in EBITDA. Her expertise lies in advising privately held, multi‑location, and multi‑generational family businesses, particularly those with complex ownership structures. She excels at securing pre‑emptive offers, leading roll‑up‑to‑sell strategies, and crafting compelling narratives that position companies for optimal market outcomes. With a keen eye for financials, she quickly identifies gaps and quality‑of‑earnings issues to mitigate risk and maximize value.

Her experience includes serving as Vice President of Sales and Business Development at a Data‑Driven Growth firm, where she led global teams, managed a $25M budget, scaling revenue from the ground up to eight figures and delivering the company's first profit. Previously, as Managing Director of Strategic Accounts at a financial services and investment advisory firm, she worked across manufacturing, franchising, and logistics sectors. She was instrumental in launching and scaling the Professional Alliance Program’s platform across North America, cultivating long‑term client relationships and creating a business vertical projected to generate $60M in revenue within five years.

"Suzanne’s founder‑first mindset and keen financial acumen make her a tremendous asset to STS. Her ability to unlock hidden value and position businesses for strategic exits aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver exceptional outcomes for our clients," said Sean Friday, CEO of STS Capital Partners.
