Jared Kostick
President | Kostick Consulting

Led by Jared Kostick, a seasoned CFO with decades of hands-on experience, the firm specializes in unlocking financial value during critical business transitions.

From preparing founder-led companies for sale to guiding Private Equity portfolio companies through post-acquisition change, Kostick Consulting delivers clarity, discipline, and results.

We step in when businesses need experienced financial leadership — whether during a sale, leadership transition, restructuring, or rapid growth phase. Our work is grounded in strategic insight and operational execution, with a clear focus on improving performance and increasing enterprise value.

Jared brings a proven track record across billion-dollar M&A deals, complex turnarounds, and high-stakes exits. He works closely with owners, investors, and executive teams to build trust quickly, align financial operations with business goals, and drive outcomes that matter.

At Kostick Consulting, we don’t just manage finance — we use it to lead.

If your business is approaching a key inflection point, we’re ready to help you move forward with confidence.

When Jared isn’t closing deals or helping with financial discipline, he spends time with his wife, two young daughters, and teaching his dog the difference between EBITDA and Net Income.
