Jim Hoffman

Genz & Associates is excited to announce that Jim Hoffman has joined the firm as a Managing Director and senior member of our team. Jim brings over 25 years of comprehensive M&A and private equity investment experience to the firm and will play a key role leading M&A engagements, developing new client relationships, and driving our new private equity co-investment activities. Jim’s addition will greatly expand our M&A advisory/origination capabilities and enable us to invest in attractive companies alongside our client partners.

Jim is uniquely skilled as both a senior M&A advisor and a seasoned private equity investor and has completed over $6.5 billion of M&A/private equity investment transactions across many industry sectors. Jim was previously a Managing Director at Stockwell Capital (a private equity co-investment firm), the Managing Partner and founder of Magna Capital (an independent middle-market private equity firm), and a Partner at Pritzker Group (a middle-market private equity firm). Jim was also a senior M&A/investment banking professional at Robert W. Baird & Co., where he was a Managing Director in its M&A Group, the Associate Director of Baird’s U.S. M&A advisory business, and the Chairman of Baird’s M&A Fairness Opinion Committee. Jim also held several investment banking positions at Credit Suisse, where he focused on both M&A and financing transactions. Jim earned his BBA from the University of Michigan and his MBA from Harvard Business School.

We are thrilled to have Jim on our team, as his experience, capabilities, and drive will enable us to provide even greater value to our clients, strengthen our investment alignment with our client partners, and advance our leadership in the buy-side M&A advisory space.
