Portugal Colonial - Caldwell Strengthens Consumer and Private Equity Capabilities with Addition of Gabino Stuyck in Madrid

Based in Madrid, Stuyck advises private equity firms, portfolio companies, and global organizations on senior executive and board appointments across Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, and North America. With more than 17 years of executive search experience and more than 200 completed mandates worldwide, he is recognized for building high-impact leadership teams in investor-backed, high-growth, and transformational environments.

"Gabino brings an exceptional international perspective and a highly relationship-driven approach to executive search that aligns strongly with how we serve our clients," said Kelly Blair, managing partner of Caldwell's Consumer Practice. "His deep expertise advising broad consumer-facing and private equity organizations on critical C-suite and board appointments, combined with his experience across multiple global markets, will be tremendously valuable to clients navigating growth, transformation, and increasingly complex leadership decisions. Just as importantly, Gabino's entrepreneurial mindset and collaborative style make him an outstanding addition to our culture and our global Consumer Practice."

Stuyck's work spans a broad range of sectors including consumer, retail, technology, digital, financial services, healthcare, sports, and industrials. He has extensive experience leading searches for CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, COOs, chief digital officers, and board directors for multinational corporations, family-owned enterprises, sovereign-backed organizations, and private equity portfolio companies. Throughout his career, he has lived and worked in major international business hubs including London, Dubai, Doha, São Paulo, Miami, New York, and Madrid, bringing clients a uniquely global and cross-cultural perspective on leadership and talent.

Prior to joining Caldwell, Stuyck was an equity partner at a global executive search firm, where he specialized in private equity and portfolio leadership assignments across multiple industries. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership roles at leading international executive search firms and began his professional career with Citigroup in Dubai.

"We are very pleased to welcome Gabino to Caldwell and our European team," said Chris Beck, chief executive officer. "His international client relationships and experience across Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, and North America strongly complement the markets where Caldwell already serves clients and has established partner presence. His deep private equity relationships and track record advising organizations through transformational growth further strengthen our ability to help clients build exceptional leadership teams across industries and geographies."
