Asking for a friend…

Anyone know a great GM / CEO candidates in Chicago with experience in manufacturing? Spanish speaking is a big plus. Company has been run for decades by previous owner who will train CEO over 6 months. Reasonable salary and equity opportunity for the role.

Consider an interim/fractional or part-time GM/CEO to help scope the position and help with the transition. Also, for what it's worth, I'd eliminate the equity promise. Those deals get challenging to put together out of the gate and have very low probability for success.
