Director of Finance
A hospitality operation needs finance leadership that understands both accounting fundamentals and day-to-day operating realities.
OTL Search helps companies reach Director-to-C-suite leaders who aren’t showing up through the usual channels. Your team can keep the hiring process. We work the market and bring the right people into it.
A job post tells you who applied. It doesn’t tell you who exists, who has the right background, or who might be open to the right conversation.
Your hiring process is active, but the candidate pool is missing the mark.
The team has the process covered but needs focused sourcing capacity.
Specific experience, scope or operating context narrows the field.
Compensation, location or calibration may be holding the search back.
The strongest people may be doing well elsewhere and not looking at job posts.
A Director-to-C-suite vacancy can slow growth, operations or a key transition.
Our experience is grounded in Hospitality, Food & Beverage and related businesses. We work across Growth, Commercial and Operations leadership.
For companies with a hiring process in place. OTL builds candidate-market access and introduces interested leaders aligned on your core criteria. Your team interviews, assesses, selects and hires.
For complex, confidential or business-critical searches where you want deeper support. OTL handles the search, candidate assessment, shortlist development and process guidance through the decision and close.

Before building OTL Search, Mark Avila spent more than 20 years inside food and hospitality operations.
That background helps OTL look beyond titles to understand business models, operating environments, team structure and what a senior leader really needs to accomplish.
You don’t need to outsource what your team already does well. With Direct Search, OTL calibrates, maps, sources, engages and introduces candidates. Your team keeps control of interviews, assessment, selection, offers and hiring.
