Craig Group Taps Ryan Williams to Lead Private Markets Expansion

Williams brings a track record of high-stakes relationship management to the firm. During his recent tenure at Consero Global, he led a team of nine account executives to exceed annual targets by 160% and generated over $6 million in net-new annual recurring revenue. His professional history includes securing Cascade Investments as a client and orchestrating a firm-wide solution for Madison Dearborn Partners that reached more than 40 portfolio companies.

CEO Summer Craig noted that Williams’ strategy of prioritizing trust over transactional sales aligns with the company’s internal philosophy. At Craig Group, Williams will focus on connecting sponsors with the firm’s cadre of former CROs and revenue operations leaders. The move signals a push to deepen the firm’s footprint in industrials, healthcare, and B2B SaaS, leveraging Williams’ network of C-suite decision-makers and operating partners.
