Aaron Mitchell Finegold Joins Kingsley Gate Partners as Chief Marketing Officer
New York – October 19, 2022 – Kingsley Gate Partners, a global executive search firm that is private-equity backed, tech-enabled, and rapidly expanding worldwide, today announced that Aaron Mitchell Finegold has joined the firm as Chief Marketing Officer. Based in San Francisco, he will oversee the firm’s full-funnel marketing strategy, external communications, and investment in business-critical capabilities such as experimentation, marketing automation, and measurement.
Aaron brings over 15 years of experience in digital marketing, brand strategy, customer insights, user acquisition, and design thinking to Kingsley Gate Partners. His experience driving innovation across both technology and professional services companies makes him uniquely qualified to lead Kingsley Gate Partners’ marketing efforts.
“We are thrilled to add Aaron to Kingsley Gate’s leadership team,” said Umesh Ramakrishnan, CEO of Kingsley Gate Partners. “We spent the last few years building a successful disruptive platform and we needed a next-generation CMO to tell the world our story. Aaron fits that bill to a T. We are now ready for the big stage.”
Before joining Kingsley Gate, Aaron spent three years as a senior leader at LinkedIn, with a focus on developing leading-edge marketing strategy, reinforcing marketing foundations (e.g., data, technology) and ensuring strong collaboration between marketing and other functions. Prior to LinkedIn, Aaron was an Associate Partner in McKinsey & Company’s Marketing and Sales practice and served as a Worldwide Marketing Strategy Consultant at Ogilvy & Mather, developing demand generation and brand marketing strategies.
“I’m ecstatic to be joining Kingsley Gate at this exciting moment in the company’s history. In a world where talent remains nearly every organization’s top priority, identifying, selecting, and onboarding the right leadership can shape future outcomes, not just for the company in question but for the world. I’m honored to be able to work with such a remarkable leadership team and lead an extremely innovative and talented band of marketers around the world. I’m looking forward to helping elevate the brand, building capabilities, and telling the stories that matter most as we at Kingsley Gate Partners enter our next phase of growth,” Aaron said.
