Operating Executive - ANZ

About the company

Evergreen Services Group is a San Francisco-based holding company that buys and runs B2B services businesses across North America. Founded in late 2017, the company has completed more than 100 acquisitions across managed IT services, cybersecurity, ERP software partners, and government services. Its people-first approach focuses on being the best long-term home for business owners and their teams by combining disciplined capital allocation with strong operational leadership.

The broader Evergreen holding company team includes 40+ professionals in San Francisco who work across capital allocation, M&A, executive hiring, board leadership, finance, and accounting. Evergreen takes a long-term ownership view and aims to keep and grow companies indefinitely, rather than operate on a typical private equity timeline. It is supported by Alpine Investors, a private equity firm with $16B+ in assets under management across the services and software sectors.
