Bob Cahill Bio

Bob is a seasoned executive with a vast array of operational and strategic experience in entrepreneurial businesses. Since joining SEA, Bob has been focused on helping entrepreneurs in a variety of industries to maximize their exit value. His formative career was spent in public accounting, real estate and banking. Those roles included tax and audit experience in multiple industries, assisting with private and public real estate syndications and commercial lending, all in large company environments. He made the move into lower middle-market businesses with the acquisition of a manufacturing and distribution business where he served as President and CEO and oversaw all aspects of the business. Bob has worked with owners in several entrepreneur-owned businesses as a C-level Finance and Operations Executive with a focus on maximizing business value. These businesses were in the hospitality, industrial distribution, staffing and industrial manufacturing and distribution industries. In these roles, he provided financial and operating strategies to improve the bottom line with experience in sell-side and buy-side transactions. It’s his curiosity and tenacity of inquiry that get Bob to fully understand a clients’ story and it is through the numbers, culture and operating structure that the value of a company is ultimately revealed. Bob is a CPA (inactive) and a graduate of St. Joseph’s University (BS Accounting) and Drexel University (MBA Finance). In his efforts to give back, Bob has served on non-profit boards. He enjoys outdoor activities of golf and a nice swim in the ocean.
