Any searchers out there who came from corporate finance/FP&A?

Hi fellow searchers,

I wanted to see if there are any searchers or successful acquirers out there who came from corporate finance/FP&A. I'm not talking about investment banking finance or venture capital, but straight-up corporate finance and FP&A. I'd love to connect and hear how you think about the search process and some of the challenges you face, particularly that in FP&A we're "reporting" the business rather than "running" the business. I'm curious to hear how sellers/bankers/others view searchers with this background.

Anyone out there?
